Methodist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#568

568. Servant of God, well done!

1 Servant of God, well done!
Thy glorious warfare's past;
The battle's fought, the race is won,
And thou art crowned at last.

2 With saints enthroned on high,
Thou dost thy Lord proclaim,
And still to God salvation cry,
Salvation to the Lamb!

3 O happy, happy soul!
In ecstasies of praise,
Long as eternal ages roll,
Thou seest thy Saviour's face.

4 Redeemed from earth and pain,
Ah! when shall we ascend
And all in Jesus' presence reign
With our translated friend!
