75. Will You Join in the Song?

1 There’s a blessed day coming,
Oh, the glad time draws near;
When the King in his beauty,
To his own will appear;
Unto those who await him,
Full salvation he’ll bring;
When he sets up his kingdom,
How his people will sing.

Chorus:
Will you join in the song
Of the glorified throng?
In the day of salvation
Will you join in the song?

2 At the feet of the Savior,
Ev’ry knee then shall bow;
Would you share in his glory,
Oh, then come to him now,
Leave the world and its pleasures,
Counting all things but loss;
For the crown of rejoicing,
When you lay down the cross. [Chorus]

3 There’ll be weeping and wailing,
There’ll be hopeless despair;
In the ranks of the faithless,
Who the joy cannot share;
As redeem’d of all nations,
Shall take up the glad strain;
“Unto him who hath loved us
Be the glory, Amen.” [Chorus]
