1 Hail! glorious company, to Zion's city bound!
While marching on your way let songs of praise resound!
On, then, to heaven above,
Firm in faith and love;
Trust in God; naught shall stay,
Our triumph way!
On, then, to heav'n above,
Firm in faith and love;
Trust in God, naught shall stay our glorious way.
Rest and peace invite us;
Joy and love await us.
Thus in happy company,
Press we on to our home,
Press we on our joyful way to heaven our home.
Jesus waits to welcome all
Who obey his gentle call;
Who believe he'll receive
In his heavenly home.
There the weary soul shall rest
In the love of Jesus blest
And adore ever more
Christ the Lord and King.
Hail! glorious company! the crowns that you shall wear
Await you at the throne beyond the golden stair.
On, then to reach the prize;
Let loud anthems rise!
Praise the Lord! he will guide:
May your faith abide!
On, then, to heav'n above,
Firm in faith and love;
Trust in God, naught shall stay our glorious way.
Rest and peace invite us;
Joy and love await us.
Thus in happy company,
Press we on to our home,
Press we on our joyful way to heaven our home.
