1 We shall meet with the saints in the morning,
On the shore of the bright crystal sea,
With the loved ones who long have been waiting,
What a meeting that will be.

Refrain:
There’ll be joy,
There’ll be joy,
When we all arrive at home,
There’ll be joy,
There’ll be joy,
When we hear the Saviour saying come.

2 We shall meet with the pure of all ages,
And from sin and from death shall be free,
We shall join in the song with the angels,
What a meeting that will be. [Refrain]

3 Oh, the joy of that meeting and greeting,
And the smile of our Saviour to see,
To sing unto him who has loved us,
What a meeting that will be. [Refrain]
