84. Music In Heaven

1 There is music in heaven o'er the saved ones of earth,
From the Bible the story sweet is known;
When the wand'rer, repenting, makes the Saviour his choice,
When the Shepherd brings home His own!

Refrain:
There is music, sweet music, up in heaven we know,
O what int'rest for erring mortals shown!
Holy angels rejoicing in the presence of God;
When the Shepherd brings home His own.

2 In the desert, 'mid danger, strays the poor wayward sheep;
Lo! the tempest is gath'ring, hear it moan!
But a kind eye is watching, and a voice calls in love,
See the Shepherd brings home His own! [Refrain]

3 Sinner, can you, rebellious, wander longer away?
Jesus for your transgressions, did atone;
Spotless angels are waiting, O how gladly they'll sing,
When the Shepherd brings home His own! [Refrain]
