LyicsChildren of the heavenly King
As ye journey sweetly sing:
Sing your Saviour's worthwhile praise,
Glorious in his works and ways.
We are travelling home to God
In the way the fathers trod;
They are happy now and we
Soon their happiness shall see.
Shout ye little flock and blest,
You near Jesus' throne shall rest;
There your seats are now prepared,
There your kingdom and reward.
Fear not brethren, joyful stand
On the borders of your land:
Jesus Christ, your Father's son,
Bids you undismayed go on.
