Author: Jefferson Hascall Hymnal: Christian Hymns #335 (1935) Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Refrain First Line: O come, angel band Lyrics: 1 My latest sun is sinking fast,
My race is nearly run;
My strongest trials now are past,
My triumph is begun.
Chorus:
O come, angel band,
Come, and around me stand:
O bear me away on your snowy wings
To my immortal home;
O bear me away on your snowy wings
To my immortal home.
2 I know I’m near the holy ranks
Of friends and kindred dear;
I brush the dews on Jordan's banks:
The crossing must be near. [Chorus]
3 I’ve almost gained my heav’nly home,
My spirit loudly sings;
Thy holy ones, behold, they come!
I hear the noise of wings. [Chorus]
