There's a golden harp in Glory
Author: William James Pearson (1832-92) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #902 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come First Line: We are marching home to Glory Lyrics: 1 We are marching home to Glory,
Marching up to mansions bright,
Where bright golden harps are playing,
Where the saints are robed in white.
Refrain:
There’s a golden harp in Glory,
There’s a spotless robe for you;
March with us to the hallelujah city,
To the land beyond the blue.
2 March to swell the heavenly chorus,
With departed friends to stay,
Sweetest notes of hallelujah music
On the golden harps to play.
3 March across death’s swelling river,
Jesus will the waves divide;
We shall have a hallelujah Heaven
When we reach the other side.
4 March to see the living fountains,
March to tread the golden street;
Every true salvation soldier
We shall up in Glory meet.
5 Sinners, join our happy Army,
March with us to Canaan’s shore;
Robes of white and harps of glory
May be yours for evermore.

There's a golden harp in Glory
To be there, to be there
Author: Elizabeth Mills (1805-29) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #904 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come First Line: We speak of the realms of the blest Lyrics: 1 We speak of the realms of the blest,
That country so bright and so fair,
And oft are its glories confessed;
But what must it be to be there!
Refrain:
To be there, to be there!
O what must it be to be there!
2 We speak of its peace and its love,
The robes which the glorified wear,
The songs of the blood-washed above;
But what must it be to be there!
3 We speak of its freedom from sin,
From sorrow, temptation and care,
From trials without and within;
But what must it be to be there!
4 Do thou, Lord, in pleasure or woe,
For Heaven our spirits prepare;
Then soon shall we joyfully know
And feel what it is to be there.

Will you go? Will you go
Author: William Hunter (1811-77) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #905 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come First Line: We're bound for the land of the pure and the holy Lyrics: 1 We're bound for the land of the pure and the holy;
The home of the happy, the Kingdom of love;
Ye wanderers from God in the broad road of folly
O say, will you go to the Eden above?
Refrain:
Will you go? Will you go?
Will you go? Will you go?
O say, will you go to the Eden above?
2 In that blessèd land neither sighing nor anguish
Can breathe in the fields where the glorified rove
Ye heart-burdened ones, who in misery languish,
O say, will you go to the Eden above?
3 Each saint has a mansion, prepared and all furnished,
Ere from this small house he is summoned to move;
Its gates and its towers with glory are burnished;
O say, will you go to the Eden above?
4 March on, happy soldiers, the land is before you,
And soon its ten thousand delights we shall prove
Yes, soon we’ll be massed on the hills of bright Glory,
And drink the pure joys of the Eden above.
Refrain:
We will go! We will go!
We will go! We will go!
O yes, we will go to the Eden above!

Numberless as the sands of the seashore

Numberless as the sands of the shore!

When the ransomed host we see,
As numberless as the sands of the seashore!

Who from sorrow and trials are free,
Meeting there with a heavenly greeting,
What a wonderful sight that will be!

‘Neath the shade of the life-giving tree,
Gazing over the fair land of promise,
What a wonderful sight that will be!
4 When at last we behold our redeemer,
And his glory unclouded we see,
While as King of all kingdoms he reigneth,
What a wonderful sight that will be!

Prepare me, prepare me, Lord
Author: Anon Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #914 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come First Line: Your garments must be white as snow Lyrics: 1 Your garments must be white as snow,
Prepare to meet your God;
For to his throne you’ll have to go;
Prepare to meet your God.
Refrain:
Prepare me, prepare me, Lord,
Prepare me to stand before thy throne.
2 Prepare me now, prepare me here,
To stand before thy throne,
That I, without a doubt or fear,
May stand before thy throne.
3 Lord, cleanse my heart and make me pure,
To stand before thy throne;
My pride and self and temper cure,
To stand before thy throne.

O soul, consider and be wise
Author: Will J. Brand (1889-1977) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #885 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come Lyrics: 1 O soul, consider and be wise,
And seek salvation while you may,
In this alone your safety lies
Against the aweful judgment day;
‘Tis Heaven or Hell, the choice is yours
Which through eternity endures.
2 Satan has taught mankind to sin,
And lures them from the heavenly goal;
Shall he a further triumph win,
And doom your unrepenting soul
To travel an unending road,
For ever separate from God?
3 Where God is not! O aweful thought,
A realm deserted, cast aside,
With sin to full fruition brought
And evil crowned and deified;
Where dread remorse and vain desire
Burn like an unconsuming fire.
4 God stoops from Heaven your soul to save,
He calls you now from Calvary;
What hope have you beyond the grave,
And who can give you hope but he?
Why longer in your sin remain?
For your redemption Christ was slain.

O soul, consider and be wise
Over there, over there, O think of the home over there
Author: DeWitt Clinton Huntington (1830-1912) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #886 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come First Line: O think of the home over there Lyrics: 1 O think of the home over there,
By the side of the river of light,
Where the saints all immortal and fair
Are robed in their garments of white.
Refrain:
Over there, over there, O think of the home over there.
Over there, over there, O think of the home over there.
2 O think of the friends over there,
Who before us the journey have trod;
Of the song that they breathe on the air
In their home in the palace of God.
3 My Saviour is now over there,
Where my kindred and friends are at rest;
Then away from my sorrow and care
Let me fly to the land of the blest.
4 I’ll soon be at home over there,
For the end of my journey I see;
Many dear to my heart over there
Are waiting and watching for me.
Languages: English
Over there, over there, O think of the home over there
Strife and sorrow over
Author: Herbert Howard Booth (1862-1926) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #894 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come First Line: Summoned home! the call has sounded Lyrics: 1 Summoned home! the call has sounded
Bidding a soldier his warfare cease;
And the song of angels resounding
Welcomes a warrior to eternal peace.
Praise the Lord! From earthly struggles
A comrade has found release.
Death has lost its sting, the grave its victory,
Conflicts and dangers are over;
See him honoured at the throne of glory,
Crowned by the hand of Jehovah.
Refrain:
Strife and sorrow over,
The lord’s true faithful soldier
Has been called to go from the ranks below
To the conquering hast above.
2 Once the sword, but now the sceptre,
Once the fight, now the rest and fame;
Broken every earthly fetter,
Now the glory for the cross and shame;
Once the loss of all for Jesus,
But now the eternal gain.
Trials and sorrows here have now their meaning found,
Mysteries their explanation;
Safe for ever in the sunlight gleaming
Of his eternal salvation.

Strife and sorrow over
There is a land of pure delight
Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #898 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign;
Infinite day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish pain.
There everlasting spring abides,
And never-withering flowers;
Death, like a narrow sea, divides
This heavenly land from ours.
2 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
Stand dressed in living green;
So to the Jews old Canaan stood,
While Jordan rolled between.
But timorous mortals start and shrink
To cross this narrow sea,
And linger, shivering on the brink,
And fear to launch away.
3 O could we make our doubts remove,
Those gloomy thoughts that rise,
And see the Canaan that we love
With unbeclouded eyes!
Could we but climb where Moses stood
And view the landscape o’er,
Not Jordan’s stream, nor death’s cold flood,
Could fright us from the shore.

There is a land of pure delight
In the sweet by-and-by
Author: Sanford Fillmore Bennett (1836-98) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #900 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come First Line: There's a land that is fairer than day Lyrics: 1 There's a land that is fairer than day,
And by faith we can see it afar;
For the Father waits over the way
To prepare us a dwelling-place there.
Refrain:
In the sweet by-and-by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.
2 We shall sing on that beautiful shore
The melodious songs of the blest;
And our spirits shall sorrow no more,
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
3 To our bountiful Father above
We will offer the tribute of praise
For the glorious gift of his love,
And the blessings that hallow our days.
