Lyics

OUR souls are in the Saviour's hand,
And he will keep them still;
And you and I shall surely stand
With him on Zion's hill.


Him eye to eye we there shall see,
Our face like his shall shine;
O what a glorious company,
When saints and angels join!


O what a joyful meeting there,
In robes of white array!
Palms in our hands we all shall bear,
And crowns that ne'er decay.


When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun!
