Lyics

When the Saviour appears,

With the Heav'nly throng,

Then we'll join with rapture,

Heav'ns immortal song.



While on earth we remain,

In this prison of clay,

Longing for deliverance-

We await that day.



When the trumpet shall sound,

And the dead arise,

May we then behold thee,

From the upper skies.



In thy kingdom on high,

Where we ne'er shall part,

May we in thy glory,

See thee as thou art.



With unceasing delight,

Thy great name we'll sing

Praising thee for ever-

Heaven's eternal king.



To the mansions of bliss,

Our eternal home,

We await the welcome-

Saviour, quickly come:
