42. The Sweetest One of All Will be Jesus

1 ‘Twill be wonderful in heaven when the millions I shall see
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus;
What a happy day of vict’ry with the ransomed that will be,
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus.

Refrain:
Oh the sweetest one of all will be Jesus,
He’ll be sweeter than He ever was before,
I will meet the blood-washed throng,
In that summer-land of song,
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus.

2 O the faithful friends in glory, they will sing my welcome home,
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus;
‘Twill be bliss in yonder homeland o’er the fields with them to roam,
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus. [Refrain]

3 How the angel band of harpers in the heav’nly light will shine,
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus;
How the white-robed hosts around the throne will praise their King divine,
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus. [Refrain]

4 Just to meet the saints and sages over on the golden shore,
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus;
Just to live beside the river with the loved ones evermore,
But the sweetest one of all will be Jesus. [Refrain]
