1 ‘Tis the promise of our Father,
Given in his Word divine,
Pledge of never failing mercy,
Those who love me shall be mine.

Refrain:
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
For his precious love divine!
When he gathers up his jewels
May I with the ransomed shine.

2 When he gathers up his jewels,
Every bright and precious gem,
Then shall shine in realms of glory
Stars in Jesus’ diadem. [Refrain]

3 Would you be a star in glory,
In the Saviour’s kingdom shine?
Trust in him, it is his promise,
Those who love me shall be mine. [Refrain]
