Triumphant Songs No.5 ‎#109

109. Shall You, Shall I Be There?

1 We read of a land bright and vernal,
A land divinely fair,
Eternally fixed in the heavens,
Shall you, shall I be there?

Refrain:
When Jesus shall gather His children home
Around His throne so fair
In glory to reign with Him evermore,
Shall you, shall I be there?

2 We sing of the valley of Eden,
Its freedom from all care,
Its life-giving streams ever flowing,
Shall you, shall I be there? [Refrain]

3 We’re told of the beautiful Mansions
That Jesus will prepare,
For all that will love and obey Him,
Shall you, shall I be there? [Refrain]
