New Songs of the Gospel ‎#38

38. When He Comes

1 We shall see our Saviour’s face,
When he comes by and by;
We shall praise him for his grace,
When he comes by and by.

Refrain:
Follow Jesus, follow on,
Follow till we reach our home;
By and by we will see Jesus,
When he comes by and by.

2 We shall stand before the King,
When he comes by and by;
And the new, new song we’ll sing,
When he comes by and by. [Refrain]

3 We shall wear a starry crown,
When he comes by and by;
By his side we shall sit down,
When he comes by and by. [Refrain]

4 From all earthly cares we’ll rest,
When he comes by and by;
We shall lean upon his breast,
When he comes by and by. [Refrain]

5 Then no more our tears will fall,
When he comes by and by;
Doubts and fears no more appall,
When he comes by and by. [Refrain]
