Appears in 3 hymnals Hymnal Title: Songs of Matchless Love First Line: There will be many stars in my heavenly crown Refrain First Line: I will toil for the Lord Lyrics: 1 There will be many stars in my heavenly crown When I stand by the beautiful throne. With a radiance more lustrous and bright it will shine For the souls that to Christ I have won. Refrain: I will toil for the Lord, winning souls “In His Name” Till at even the sun goeth down, And shall wear by and by for each soul I have won One more star in my beautiful crown. 2 When I stand with the saved to receive my reward And the Master shall speak His “Well done!” With a smile on His brow He will speak it to me For the souls “In His Name” I have won. [Refrain] 3 As the fruit of my toil stars shall gleam in my crown With a glory surpassing the sun, For I dare not so live as to win not a soul Ere my life up in heav’n is begun. [Refrain] 4 It was Christ who inspired me with love for the lost, And some service thro’ Him I have done, And each soul I have led to the Cross “In His Name” Shall be one more bright star in my crown. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [There will be many stars in my heavenly crown]
