Lyrics

When the King of all kings shall des­cend to earth again,
And be­fore Him the mill­ions shall stand,
When He chooses His bride, with Him ev­er here to reign,
May I then have a place at His right hand.

Refrain

May I then have a place at the Sav­ior’s right hand.
When be­fore Him all nations shall stand;
May I reign with Him here as a king or priest to be,
From all sor­row and care ev­er free.

When all na­tions shall ga­ther to meet the com­ing King,
In His glo­ry with bright an­gel band,
Then the Lord for the faith­ful will crowns of glo­ry bring,
May I then have a place at His right hand.

Refrain

When He choos­es His bride—all the ov­er­com­ers here,
May I be one of that hap­py band;
E’er to be with the Lord, ne’er to sor­row nor to fear,
May I then have a place at His right hand.
