Lyrics

Do you feel the love of Je­sus?
Does it burn with­in your heart,
As you think of what He suf­fered,
That His life He might im­part?

Refrain

We are go­ing home to glo­ry,
By and by, by and by;
We are go­ing home to glo­ry,
By and by, by and by.

Do you know the love of Je­sus?
Is it more than life to you?
Do you feel His arms around you?
Do you love His work to do?

Refrain

Oh, my friend, it is so pre­cious!
Living just for Je­sus here;
Never need we fear or trem­ble,
Only trust that Friend so dear.

Refrain

Jesus loves you, Je­sus calls you,
Won’t you heed that call to­day?
Give your­self into His keep­ing;
He will lead you all the way.
