Hymnal: The Little Minstrel #74 (1867) First Line: When I can read my title clear Lyrics: 1 When I can read my title clear
To mansions in the skies,
I'll bid farewell to every fear,
And wipe my weeping eyes.
Refrain:
We'll wait, we'll wait till Jesus come,
We'll wait, we'll wait till Jesus come,
And we'll be gathered home.
2 Should earth against my soul engage,
And bellish darts be hurled,
Then I would smile at Satan's rage,
And face a frowning world. [Refrain]
3 Let cares like a wild deluge come,
And storms of sorrow fall,
May I but safely reach my home,
My God, my heaven, my all. [Refrain]
4 There shall I bathe my weary soul
In seas of heavenly rest,
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast. [Refrain]
5 Then let this feeble body fail,
And let it faint or die,
My soul shall quit this mournful vale,
And soar to worlds on high. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [When I can read my title clear]
