Lyrics & Stanzas
4 portions
Verse 1
When Jesus comes again to gather His own, And to the true, a crown is giv'n, I want to hear Him say, "My servant, well done, Thy soul shall know the joys of heav'n."
Verse 2
I want to tell to all the story of love, That they may know His pardon free; And there before His throne in glory above, Receive a crown of victory.
Verse 3
I do not know the day my Savior will come, But I must be prepared to go; If I am ready He will call me His own, And that's enough for me to know.
Chorus
I want to know that He will welcome me there, (I want to know that He will welcome me there,) I do not want to be denied; (I do not want to be denied.) I want to meet Him in that city so fair, (I want to meet Him in that city so fair,) And ever there with Him abide.
