Author: P. P. Hymnal: Sunshine #3 (1895) First Line: We come together here, once more Refrain First Line: We are passing onward Lyrics: 1 We come together here, once more, To sing and speak and pray; None should be idle in God’s house On this His holy day. Refrain: We are passing onward, To our Father’s dwelling; Onward, forward to the better land! When we cross the river We shall dwell forever In the land of Paradise at God’s right hand. 2 Oh, how delightful here to meet, A cheerful, happy throng, To learn of wisdom from God’s word, And join in gladsome song. [Refrain] 3 This is a work we love so well, Sinners to win—our call, For Jesus died to save the lost, And grace is free for all. [Refrain] 4 Soon will our labors have an end And we’ll be called to go, To be with Christ, and all the good, Where living waters flow.

Philip Phillips

1834 - 1895 Person Name: P. P. Author of "The work we love" in Loyal Praise Phillips, Philip, commonly known as the "Singing Pilgrim," was born in Chautauqua County, N. York, Aug. 13, 1834. Although engaged in farming for a time, from an early age he devoted himself to music, and ultimately devoted himself to the work of a "Singing Evangelist," in which capacity he has visited most English-speaking countries. His popular hymnals are: (1) Early Blossoms, 1860; (2) Musical Leaves, 1862; and (3) The Singing Pilgrim, 1866. In these works he published one or two hymns, including "I have heard of a Saviour's love" (The love of Christ), as in I. D. Sankey's Sacred Songs and Solos, 1878. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
