Lyrics

Oft I am so lonely,
In this world of care,
But I know in Glory,
No sad ones dwell there.
Yes, I know, in Hea­ven,
Jesus waits for me;
When my work is ended,
I shall with Him be.

When I enter Hea­ven—
City, bright and fair,
He’ll be first to welcome
Me, a child and heir
To those heav’nly treasures
Laid, by Christ, in store,
For the weary traveler
When this life is o’er.

Why, then, should I wander
Blindly here in sin,
When in Hea­ven yonder
Is a crown to win.
O dear Sav­ior, guide me,
Keep me by Thy side;
May I now and ever
In Thy love abide.
