The Golden Sheaf ‎#197

197. Glory Hallelujah, I'll Be There

1 When the ransom'd ones shall gather over in the heav'nly land,
Palms of vict'ry, crowns of glory now to wear;
Covered with the blood of Jesus, in his righteousness to stand,
Glory, glory hallelujah, I'll be there.

Chorus:
Yes, I'll meet you in the city of the new Jerusalem,
I'll be there, I'll be there.
For I'm going home to dwell with the Lord I love so well,
Glory, glory hallelujah, I'll be there.

2 When the hallelujah chorus sweeps across the crystal sea,
When the sounds of holy triumph fill the air;
Where the heav'nly plains reecho with the sounds of victory,
Glory, glory hallelujah, I'll be there.
[Chorus]

3 When they crown the blessed Saviour, King of kings, and Lord of all,
And in rapture gaze upon his face so fair;
Where they cast their crowns before him, prostrate at his feet they fall,
Glory, glory hallelujah, I'll be there. [Chorus]
