182. We Shall See the King

1 A glorious time is coming when we all get home,
When we've crossed in safety o'er the billows foam,
When with the saints and angels there 'neath heaven's dome,
We shall see the beauty of the King some day.

Chorus:
We shall see the King some day,
We shall see the King some day,
When we meet to praise Him round the great white throne,
Hallelujah! we shall see the King some day.

2 We'll hear the shouts of joy that make all heaven ring,
We shall hear the songs of praise the ransomed sing,
We'll sing the mighty hosts that bow before the King,
We shall see the glory of the King some day. [Chorus]

3 We'll see the shining angels on that blissful shore,
We shall meet our loved ones who have gone before,
We'll dwell in joy supernal there for evermore,
Best of all, we know we'll see the King some day. [Chorus]

4 We'll faithful be to serve Him till our race is run,
Till thro' grace the battle's fought and vict'ry's won,
And we shall hear the welcome, "Faithful one, well done,"
Hallelujah! we shall see the King some day. [Chorus]
