Will There Be One Soul To Greet Me?

Author: Mrs. J. M. Hunter Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 10 hymnals First Line: Soon I’ll cross the "mystic river," Refrain First Line: Help me, help me now, my Savior Lyrics: 1 Soon I’ll cross the "mystic river," Soon my labors will be o’er, Soon my boat shall reach the landing, Soon my feet shall press the shore. Refrain: Help me, help me now, my Savior, Wandering souls to win for Thee, Souls to shine in heav’nly mansions, Throughout all eternity. 2 Will there be one soul to greet me, Out of all that happy band, One that I have helped to rescue, Guided to the shining strand? [Refrain] 3 Will someone then say with rapture, "It was you who showed the way, Led me to a gracious Savior, Sought me when I went astray"? [Refrain] 4 O the bliss beyond expression, O the joy serene and pure! Lord for this I’ll gladly labor, All the heat and toil endure! [Refrain] 5 If I may, for Thine own kingdom, Win but one dear blood-bought soul, ’Twill be precious compensation, When I’ve reached, at last, the goal. [Refrain] Used With Tune: LEVALLOIS Text Sources: Singing for Joy (Dalton, Ga: Anthony J. Showalter, 1902)
