LyicsWhen the Saviour appears
With the heavenly throng,
Then we'll join with rapture
Heaven's immortal song.
While on earth we remain,
In this pris'n of clay,
Longing for deliv'rance,
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 forever,
Heaven's eternal King.
