Christ Returneth
Author: H. L. Turner Hymnal: Christ in Song #867 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Return of Christ First Line: It maybe at morn, when the day is awaking Refrain First Line: O Lord Jesus, how long, how long Lyrics: 1. It may be at morn, when the day is awaking,
When sunlight thro' darkness and shadow is breaking,
That Jesus will come in the fullness of glory
To receive from the world His own.

O Lord Jesus, how long, how long
Ere we shout the glad song?
Christ returneth, Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Amen, Hallelujah! Amen.

It may be, perchance, that the blackness of midnight
Will burst into light in the blaze of His glory,
When Jesus receives His own. [Chorus]

With glorified saints and the angels attending,
With grace on His brow, like a halo of glory;
Will Jesus receive "His own." [Chorus]

No sickness, no sadness, no dread, and no crying,
Caught up thro' the clouds with our Lord into glory,
When Jesus receives His own. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [It may be at morn, when the day is awaking]

Garments of light, Lovely and bright,
Walking with Jesus in white,
Beautiful robes we shall wear.

Holding converse full and sweet,
In a fellowship complete;
Waking songs of holy melody. [Chorus]

By the fountains of delight,
Where the Lamb his ransomed ones shall lead;
For his blood shall wash each stain,
Till no spot of sin remain,
And the soul forevermore is free. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [We shall walk with him in white]

We Would See Jesus
Author: Anna B. Warner Hymnal: Christ in Song #870 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Waiting for Christ First Line: "We would see Jesus;" for the shadows lengthen Lyrics: 1. "We would see Jesus;" for the shadows lengthen
Across the little landscape of our life;
We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strengthen
For the last conflict in this mortal strife.
2. "We would see Jesus," Rock of our salvation,
Whereon our feet were set with sov'reign grace;
Not life, nor death, with all their agitation,
Can thence remove us, gazing on his face.
3. "We would see Jesus;" other lights are paling,
Which for long years we did rejoice to see;
The blessings of this sinful world are failing;
We would not mourn them, in exchange for Thee.
4. "We would see Jesus;" this is all we're needing,
Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight;
We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading,
Soon to return and end this mortal night!

We Would See Jesus

Burdened with the ceaseless care,

Thou shalt dwell with him some day. [Chorus]

Where the soul is satisfied. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Soul amid earth sorrows dwelling]

At even, or midnight, or morn;

Nor suffer our lights to grow dim;
That when He shall come, He may find us,
All waiting and watching for Him.
Chorus:
Waiting and watching,
Waiting and watching;
Waiting and watching,
Still waiting and watching for Thee.

The price our salvation hath cost;
He left the bright mansions of glory
To suffer and die for the lost.
And sometimes I think it will please Him,
When those whom He died to redeem,
Rejoice in the hope of His coming
By waiting and watching for Him. [Chorus]
3. O Jesus, my loving Redeemer,
Thou knowest I cherish as dear
The hope that mine eyes shall behold Thee,
That I shall thine own welcome hear!
If to some as a Judge thou appearest,
Who forth from Thy presence would feel,
A Friend most beloved I'll greet Thee,
I'm waiting and watching for Thee. [Chorus]

We Shall Know
Author: Annie Herbert Hymnal: Christ in Song #893 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Meeting in Heaven First Line: When the mists have rolled in splendor Refrain First Line: We shall know as we are known Lyrics: 1. When the mists have rolled in splendor
From the beauty of the hills,
And the sunshine, warm and tender,
Falls in kisses on the rills,
We may read love's shining letter
In the rainbow of the spray;
We shall know each other better
When the mists have cleared away.
Chorus:
We shall know as we are known,
Nevermore to walk alone,
In the dawning of the morning,
When mists have cleared away;
In the dawning of the morning,
When the mists have cleared away.
2. If we err in human blindness,
And forget that we are dust,
If we miss the law of kindness
When we struggle to be just,
Snowy wings of peace shall cover
All the errors of today,
When the weary watch is over,
And the mists have cleared away. [Chorus]
3. When the mists have ris'n above us,
As our Father knows his own,
Face to face with those that love us,
We shall know as we are known;
Far beyond the orient meadows
Floats the golden fringe of day;
Heart to heart we bide the shadows,
Till the mists have cleared away. [Chorus]
