My Days Are Gliding Swiftly By;
And I, A Pilgrim Stranger,
Would Not Detain Them As They Fly,
Those Hours Of Toil And Labor.
For, Oh! We Stand On Jordan’s Strand;
Our Friends Are Passing Over;
And, Just Before, The Shining Shore
We May Almost Discover.
We’ll Gird Our Loins, My Brethren Dear,
Our Distant Home Discerning:
Our Waiting Lord Has Left Us Word,
Let Every Lamp Be Burning.
Should Coming Days Be Cold And Dark,
We Need Not Cease Our Singing:
That Perfect Rest Naught Can Molest,
Where Golden Harps Are Ringing.
Let Sorrow’s Rudest Tempest Blow,
Each Cord On Earth To Sever:
Our King Says, “Come,” And There’s Our Home,
Forever, Oh! Forever.
