Representative Text

1 When His ransomed children are gathered home,
Safe, within the fold, no longer to roam,
And the Lord is throned in the midst of His own,
That will be glory, be glory for Him.

Refrain:
Oh, that will be glory for Him,
Glory for Him, be glory for Him,
When thro’ His love all His saints meet above,
That will be glory, be glory for Him.

2 When He welcomes them all from whom He died,
As they one by one are bro’t to His side,
Forever with Him in joy to abide,
That will be glory, be glory for Him. [Refrain]

3 When He for His saints comes from heaven again,
And the dead in Christ shall waken to reign,
Bursting from the grave free forever from chain,
That will be glory, be glory for Him. [Refrain]

4 When from that bright hosts swells the new, new song,
Never shall a tear fall ‘mid that glad throng,
When all sorrow ended, all suff’ring and wrong,
That will be glory, be glory for Him. [Refrain]
