268. In a Moment

1 A moment more, and I may be
Caught up in glory, Lord, with Thee;
And raptured sight! Thy face to see
Forevermore.

2 A moment more! earth left behind;
Our bodies their redemption find;
Our souls, the prize for which they pined
With great desire!

3 A moment more! what joy to wear
Thy likeness, Saviour, and to share
With Thee, the peace preparéd there
Where Thou art gone!

4 A moment more! upon Thy throne;
Thy place by right then made Thine own;
Thou wilt not fill that seat alone,
But with Thy saints.

5 A moment more! Oh, can it be?
One moment bring such joy to me?
Yea, joy of joys, yield them to Thee!
Our Saviour Lord!
