Waiting For You And Me
Author: A. T. Gorham Appears in 3 hymnals Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: The golden spires are gleaming Refrain First Line: Waiting, waiting Lyrics: 1 The golden spires are gleaming
Just on the other side!
I see the turrets glisten
Hard by the flowing tide;
The pearly gates are open,
The highway’s large and free;
And angel bands are waiting
To welcome you and me.
Refrain:
Waiting, waiting,
Beautiful forms I see;
The angel bands are waiting,
To welcome you and me.
2 The fadeless flowers are blooming,
Just on the other side,
And down life’s shining river
The crystal waters glide;
The sons of glory linger
Beneath each spreading tree,
And angel bands are waiting
To welcome you and me. [Refrain]
3 With joy we soon shall gather
Just on the other side,
While endless songs of triumph
Come floating o’er the tide;
In Eden’s star lit mansions
Our home shall ever be,
And angel bands are waiting
To welcome you and me. [Refrain]
4 Yes, waiting, ever waiting
Just on the other side—
Beyond the rolling river,
Across the surging tide;
Yes, waiting, ever waiting
Upon the jasper sea,
And angel bands are waiting
To welcome you and me. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [The golden spires are gleaming] Text Sources: On Joyful Wing, by John R. Sweney and William J. Kirkpatrick (Philadelphia: John J. Hood, 1886)
