LyicsWe're trav'ling home to Heaven above -
Will you go? Will you go?
To sing the Saviour's dying love -
Will you go? Will you go?
Millions have reach'd that bless'd abode,
Anointed kings and priests to God,
And millions now are on the road -
Will you go? Will you go?
We're going to see the bleeding Lamb - Will you go?
In rapturous strains to praise his name - Will you go?
The crown of life we there shall wear,
The conqueror's palm our hands shall bear,
And all the joys of Heaven we'll share - Will you go?
We're going to join the heavenly choir - Will you go?
To raise our voice and tune the lyre - Will you go?
There saints and angels gladly sing
Hosanna to their God and King,
And make the heavenly arches ring - Will you go?
You weary, heavy laden, come - Will you go?
In the bless'd house there still is room - Will you go?
The Lord is waiting to receive:
If you will on him now believe,
He'll give your troubled conscience ease - Come believe!
The way to Heaven is free for all - Will you go?
For Jew and Gentile, great and small - Will you go?
Make up your mind, give God your heart,
With every sin and idol part,
And now for glory make a start - Come away!
The way to Heaven is straight and plain - Will you go?
Believe, repent, be born again - Will you go?
The Saviour cries aloud to thee,
"Take up thy cross and follow me,
And thou shalt my salvation see - Come to me!"
Oh could I hear some sinner say - "I will go!
I'll start this moment clear the way - Let me go!
My old companions, fare you well,
I will not go with you to hell;
I mean with Jesus Christ to dwell - Let me go!
Fare you well!"
