Just A Few More Days To Be Filled With Praise,
And To Tell The Old, Old Story;
Then, When Twilight Falls, And My Saviour Calls,
I Shall Go To Him In Glory.
I’ll Exchange My Cross For A Starry Crown,
Where The Gates Swing Outward Never;
At His Feet I’ll Lay Every Burden Down,
And With Jesus Reign Forever.
Just A Few More Years With Their Toil And Tears,
And The Journey Will Be Ended;
Then I’ll Be With Him, Where The Tide Of Time
With Eternity Is Blended.
Though The Hills Be Steep And The Valleys Deep,
With No Flowers My Way Adorning;
Though The Night Be Lone And My Rest A Stone,
Joy Awaits Me In The Morning.
What A Joy ‘Twill Be When I Wake To See
Him For Whom My Heart Is Burning!
Nevermore To Sigh, Nevermore To Die,
For That Day My Heart Is Yearning.
