Jesus, the Saviour is coming soon,
Will you be ready to meet Him?
Coming to take to His Father’s Home,
Are we all waiting to greet Him?
Chorus.
Joy, joy, eternal joy,
There with the Saviour in glory;
O, how our hearts will rejoice,
Ever to sing the glad story.
Glory to Jesus who died on the cross,
From every sin to release us;
By His own blood He hath washed us white,
From all our fears to appease us.
“Suffer the children to come unto Me,”
These are the words He has spoken;
O how He gathers the lambs to His fold,
His promises ne’er can be broken.
Soon we shall walk on the street of gold,
There with our Saviour in glory;
There we shall gaze on His blessed face,
As we tell out the wonderful story.
Grant us, Lord Jesus, Thy grace which will keep
Our hearts with Thy love ever swelling,
To walk where Thou leadest until Thou dost come,
When safe with Thy Father we’re dwelling.
