1. O when shall I see Jesus, | |||
And reign with him above; | |||
And from that flowing fountain | |||
Drink everlasting love? | |||
When shall I be delivered | |||
From this vain world of sin, | |||
And with my blessed Jesus, | |||
Drink endless pleasures in? | |||
2. But now I am a soldier, | |||
{{ | My Captain's gone before, | ||
He's given me my orders, | |||
And bid me not give o'er; | |||
}} | If I continue faithful, | ||
A righteous crown he'll give, | |||
And all his valiant soldiers | |||
Eternal life shall have. | |||
3. Through grace I am determined | |||
To conquer, though I die, | |||
And then away to Jesus, | |||
On wings of love, I'll fly. | |||
Farewell to sin and sorrow, | |||
I bid you all adieu; | |||
And O my friends be faithful, | |||
And on your way pursue. | |||
4. And if you meet with trouble | |||
And trials on your way, | |||
Then cast your care on Jesus, | |||
And don't forget to pray. | |||
Gird on the heavenly armor | |||
Of faith, and hope, and love; | |||
And when the combat's ended | |||
He'll carry you above. | |||
5. O do not be discouraged, | |||
For Jesus is your friend; | |||
And if you want more knowledge, | |||
He'll not refuse to lend: | |||
Neither will he upbraid you, | |||
Though oftener you request; | |||
He'll give you grace to conquer, | |||
And take you home to rest. | |||
6. And when the last loud trumpet | |||
Shall rend the vaulted skies, | |||
And bid the entombed millions | |||
From their cold beds arise; | |||
Our ransomed dust revived, | |||
Bright beauties shall put on, | |||
And soar to the blest mansions | |||
Where our Redeemer's gone. | |||
7. Our eyes shall then with rapture | |||
The Savior's face behold; | |||
Our feet no more diverted, | |||
Shall walk the street of gold ; | |||
Our ears shall hear with transport | |||
The hosts celestial sing; | |||
Our tongues shall chant the glory | |||
Of our immortal King.}} | |||
