| Text: | Golden Throne |
| Tune: | [It takes a very humble soul] |
| Composer: | C. L. F. |
1 It takes a very humble soul,
It takes a very humble soul,
It take a very humble soul,
To stand by the Golden Throne.
Chorus:
Then haste away to the Sunday-school,
Then haste away to the Sunday-school,
Then haste away to the Sunday-school,
And learn the Golden rule.
2 We'll mingle with the angels there,
We'll mingle with the angels there,
We'll mingle with the angels there,
Who stand by the Golden Throne. [Chorus]
3 The tree of life grows bright and fair,
The tree of life grows bright and fair,
The tree of life grows bright and fair,
Grows near by the Golden Throne. [Chorus]
4 The river of life flows sweetly there,
The river of life flows sweetly there,
The river of life flows sweetly there,
It flows from the Golden Throne. [Chorus]
5 We'll meet our friends and teachers there,
We'll meet our friends and teachers there,
We'll meet our friends and teachers there,
And dwell near the Golden throne. [Chorus]
6 We'll see our blessed Savior there,
We'll see our blessed Savior there,
We'll see our blessed Savior there,
Who sits on the Golden Throne. [Chorus]
