67. While We're Waiting for the King

1 There are hearts to cheer as we pass along,
With a sunny smile and a happy song,
There are kindly deeds ev’ry one can bring
While we’re waiting for the King.

Chorus:
While we’re waiting for the King,
While we’re waiting for the King;
In his service true there is work to do,
While we’re waiting for the King.

2 There are happy souls that must all be fed
With the Gospel food of the Living bread,
There are bells of joy in some hearts to ring,
While we’re waiting for the King. [Chorus]

3 O the working days are too short at best;
We must faithful prove if we would be blest;
Then in praiseful strains shall we sweetly sing,
While we’re waiting for the King. [Chorus]
