Will He Bid Us Enter In?

Author: W. B. Carnes Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7475 First Line: Life is oft beset with sorrows Refrain First Line: Are we ready? Are we ready? Lyrics: 1. Life is oft beset with sorrows, Trials come on every hand; Fain would careworn pilgrims borrow Pleasures from the glory land; But we bide our time with patience, Waiting till our Lord shall come, Waiting till the Master bids us Enter our eternal home. Refrain Are we ready? Are we ready? Will we hear the welcome voice Bid us enter into glory, And with ransomed souls rejoice? 2. Oft we stumble by the wayside When temptations spread around; Thus to lure us from our duty Satan seeks to drag us down; But like serpent-bitten Israel, We can lift our trusting eyes To the cross of our Redeemer And our home beyond the skies. [Refrain] 3. Yes, we’ll bide our time with patience, Battling with the hosts of sin; If we’re faithful to the Master, He will bid us enter in; When we’ve passed the pearly gateway, When we’ve reached the glory land, Pain and tears will all be banished By the loving Father’s hand. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Life is oft beset with sorrows]
