76. When the Lord Shall Call His Own

1 There is a time, a happy time,
When the Lord shall call His own;
Then hosts shall sing, and praise their King,
When the Lord shall call His own.

Chorus:
Oh, angel song!
Oh happy happy throng!
When the Lord shall call His own.
Shall I be there, your bliss to share!
When the Lord shall call His own.

2 Like fertile seed each loving deed,
When the Lord shall call His own;
Tho’ lost to view shall spring anew,
When the Lord shall call His own. [Chorus]

3 What heav’nly grace, on ev’ry face,
When the Lord shall call His own;
As to each one He says “well done,”
When the Lord shall call His own. [Chorus]
