Refrain: O wonderful country, home of my Savior, How I am longing for thee, for thee, Where never a sorrow or care for the morrow Shall trouble the blessed and free. 2 They say in that land is a glorious city, Whose walls are of jasper and gold, With glittering streets of most wonderful beauty And wealth that can never be told; They say the inhabitants never brow weary, They never know sorrow or care, That joy without measure and peace everlasting, Are given the blessed ones there. [Refrain] 3 I read in the Bible the wonderful story, How Jesus was nailed on the tree, And how in the bitterest agony dying, He opened that country to me; By faith in his love, and the grace that he gives me, I look to that country divine, And know that among the rewards there awaiting, A home and a crown shall be mine. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [I have often been told of a wonderful country]

Will it Pay?

Author: Anon. Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: There’s a question that comes to us all Refrain First Line: Will it pay? will it pay Lyrics: 1 There’s a question that comes to us all, With alarm, many times in a day; It seems like a kind angels call, And asks those who sin, will it pay? Will it pay to make pleasure the goal, And trifle our brief lives a way, At the price of the blood-redeemed soul? Do you think, at such cost it will pay? Refrain: Will it pay? will it pay? Do you think after all it will pay? Will it pay? will it pay? Do you think after all it will pay? 2 Should a comrade invite you to drink, Or engage for a wager to play, Be careful my friend, stop and think; Consider the cost, will it pay? Will it pay, for the charm of the cup, To fill life with woe and dismay? O the folly of sin! give it up! Do you think, at such cost it will pay? [Refrain] 3 Or perhaps you have learned to profane, One who blesses and loves you each day, And oft take his great name in vain; My brother will such folly pay? Will it pay you to forfeit your right, To the beautiful mansions above, And be banished in darkness and night, Far away from his bountiful love? [Refrain] 4 Oh, consider the words of the Lord, For they teach us a far better way; His counsels true pleasure afford, And serving him surely will pay, It is better to turn from all sin, And love the Redeemer and pray, Than to forfeit the blood-redeemed soul, And be cast from his presence away. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [There’s a question that comes to us all]
