16644. When The Waiting Time Is Over

1 When the wait­ing time is over,
When the Mas­ter bids us come,
In the glad and bright for­ev­er
We shall rest in peace, at home.

Refrain:
When the wait­ing time is ov­er,
When from sin and sor­row free,
We shall meet be­yond the riv­er,
There to dwell eter­nal­ly.

2 When the wait­ing time is ov­er,
Battles fought and vic­t’ries won,
We shall hear the Sav­ior’s wel­come:
"Good and faith­ful one, well done." [Refrain]

3 When the wait­ing time is ov­er,
When the toils of life are past,
We shall with sing ho­ly rap­ture,
"Praise the Lord, we’re home at last." [Refrain]
