A Little While

Author: Daniel W. Whittle Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7841 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 D First Line: "A little while!" and He shall come Refrain First Line: Then come, Lord Jesus, quickly come Lyrics: 1 "A little while!" and He shall come; The hour draws on apace, The blessèd hour, the glorious morn, When we shall see His face: How light our trials then will seem! How short our pilgrim way! Our life on earth a fitful dream, Dispelled by dawning day! Refrain: Then come, Lord Jesus, quickly come, In glory and in light! Come take Thy longing children home, And end earth’s weary night! 2 A little while! with patience, Lord, I fain would ask, How long? For how can I with such a hope Of glory and of home, With such a joy awaiting me, Not wish the hour were come? How can I keep the longing back, And how suppress the groan? [Refrain] 3 Yet peace, my heart! and hush, my tongue! Be calm, my troubled breast! Each passing hour is hastening on The everlasting rest: Thou knowest well—the time thy God Appoints for thee is best: The morning star will soon arise; The glow is in the east. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: FINCHLEY
