My Savior First of All

Author: Frances J. Crosby Hymnal: Timeless Truths #829 Meter: 14.11.14.11 with refrain First Line: When my lifework is ended, and I cross the swelling tide Refrain First Line: I shall know Him, I shall know Him Lyrics: 1 When my lifework is ended, and I cross the swelling tide, When the bright and glorious morning I shall see; I shall know my Redeemer when I reach the other side, And His smile will be the first to welcome me. Refrain: I shall know Him, I shall know Him, And redeemed by His side I shall stand, I shall know Him, I shall know Him, By the print of the nails in His hand. 2 Oh, the soul-thrilling rapture when I view His blessed face, And the luster of His kindly beaming eye; How my full heart will praise Him for the mercy, love and grace, That prepare for me a mansion in the sky. [Refrain] 3 Oh, the dear ones in glory, how they beckon me to come, And our parting at the river I recall; To the sweet vales of Eden they will sing my welcome home; But I long to meet my Savior first of all. [Refrain] 4 Through the gates to the city in a robe of spotless white, He will lead me where no tears will ever fall; In the glad song of ages I shall mingle with delight; But I long to meet my Savior first of all. [Refrain] Topics: Jesus/Savior Scripture: Psalm 17:15 Tune Title: [When my lifework is ended, and I cross the swelling tide]
