With Him in Glory

Author: E. E. Hewitt Hymnal: Crowning Day No. 3 #30 (1898) First Line: Sometimes we sigh as days go by Refrain First Line: When we are with Him in glory Lyrics: 1 Sometimes we sigh as days go by, Looking on life’s varied story; But only love we’ll sing above, When we are with Him in glory. Refrain: When we are with Him in glory, When we are with Him in glory, Our hearts shall raise adoring praise, When we are with Him in glory. 2 We’ll bless the Lord with glad accord, Knowing “all things work together;” Our risen King can blessing bring, Stormy or sunshiny weather. [Refrain] 3 E’en here we trace His wondrous grace, Mercies abundant and tender; But how much more on that bright shore, Jubilant anthems we’ll render. [Refrain] 4 We’ll now begin the heav’nly hymn, Singing thro’ life’s varied story; Thro’ good and ill, we’ll trust Him still, Till we are with Him in glory. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Sometimes we sigh as days go by]
