Author: W. Ross McMeans Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9348 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Angel bands are sweetly singing Lyrics: 1 Angel bands are sweetly singing
Far above the starry sky,
Where with God, in endless glory,
We shall spend eternity.
Refrain:
Precious Savior, pure and holy,
Who for us once bled and died,
Help us that we may prove worthy
To be found at Thy right side.
2 This vain world is full of sorrow,
Full of sickness, death and pain,
But there waits a land immortal,
Where pure joy and gladness reign. [Refrain]
3 Fair and bright is yonder city,
Built beside the jasper sea,
Where there wait the many mansions,
Where from sin we shall be free. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: KIRBATI
