I Know That Jesus Ever Lives,
And Has Prepared A Place For Me:
And Crowns Of Victory He Gives
To Those Who Would His Children Be.
Then Ask Me Not To Linger Long
Amid The Gay
And Thoughtless Throng;
For I Am Only Waiting Here
To Hear The Summons:
“Child, Come Home!”
For I Am Only Waiting Here
To Hear The Summons:
“Child, Come Home!”
I’m Trusting Jesus Christ For All,
I Know His Blood
Now Speaks For Me;
I’m Listening For The Welcome Call,
To Say: “The Master Waiteth Thee!”
Then Ask Me Not To Linger Long
Amid The Gay
And Thoughtless Throng;
For I Am Only Waiting Here
To Hear The Summons:
“Child, Come Home!”
For I Am Only Waiting Here
To Hear The Summons:
“Child, Come Home!”
I’m Now Enraptured
With The Thought,
I Stand And Wonder At His Love
That He From Heaven
To Earth Was Brought
To Die, That I Might Live Above.
Then Ask Me Not To Linger Long
Amid The Gay
And Thoughtless Throng;
For I Am Only Waiting Here
To Hear The Summons:
“Child, Come Home!”
For I Am Only Waiting Here
To Hear The Summons:
“Child, Come Home!”
I Know That Jesus Soon Will Come;
I Know The Time Will Not Be Long,
Till I Shall Reach My Heavenly Home,
And Join The Everlasting Song.
Then Ask Me Not To Linger Long
Amid The Gay
And Thoughtless Throng;
For I Am Only Waiting Here
To Hear The Summons:
“Child, Come Home!”
For I Am Only Waiting Here
To Hear The Summons:
“Child, Come Home!”
