Blessed are they who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb.
Revelation 19:9
Words & Music: Robert E. Winsett, in Holiness to the Lord, edited by Frank M. Graham (Greensboro, Georgia: Frank M. Graham, 1908) (🔊 pdf nwc). Because of the complex score, this song is better suited for a choir, rather than congregational singing.
Soon the time will come, dear brother,
To reward the faithful few,
Hallelujah, I’ll be there;
When the Lord shall crown His children,
Will He give one then to you?
Hallelujah, I’ll be there.
Refrain
Then I’ll be there, yes, I’ll be there;
I’ll be there and answer present
When the roll is called.
Then I’ll be there, yes, I’ll be there;
I’ll be there and answer present
When the roll is called.
O, there soon will be a meeting
Of the saints up in the air,
Hallelujah, I’ll be there;
Then we’ll have the marriage supper
In that home so bright and fair,
Hallelujah, I’ll be there.
Refrain
Brother, sister, you’re invited,
And ’twill mean all to attend,
Hallelujah, I’ll be there;
Then you’ll meet with all the loved ones
In that world that ne’er shall end,
Hallelujah, I’ll be there.
Refrain
Brother, what an awful judgment
If not ready then to go,
Hallelujah, I’ll be there;
O get ready for the rapture,
And be saved from endless woe,
Refrain
