Who Will Join The Throng To Heaven?

Author: P. C. Paulsen; H. A. Brorson Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Who will join the throng to heaven? Come, our Savior calleth thee. Come while time to thee is given, Humbly bow to Him the knee. Turn from sin thy face away, With the world no longer stray; Greater things thy soul must treasure Than the world's vain lust and pleasure. 2 Hast thou spent thy days in chasing Phantom pleasures luring thee? Hast thou fondly been embracing Sin with all its agony? Oh, then turn to Calvary, Let the cross thy solace be, With a heart contrite and lowly Give thyself to Jesus wholly. 3 He alone can safely guide thee On the way to yonder shore, Thou art safe with Him beside thee, Who hath help for thee in store, But without Him thou shalt fail; All thy wisdom, like a tale, In the final test shall perish; Jesus only thou must cherish. 4 Come, ye Christians, storms defying, Courage take from God above, While on Him alone relying, One in faith, in hope, in love. Keep ye Jesus ever near And His holy name revere. Help the weak and erring brother, And in love serve one another. 5 It is time that we be starting, Death is swiftly drawing nigh; Time, that we should be departing For a place with Christ on high. Take His cross and start today, For we dare not risk delay; Come while time to thee is given; Who will join the throng to heaven? Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Used With Tune: BRORSON

Who Will Join The Throng To Heaven?

Author: H. A. Brorson Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #174 (1927) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Who will join the throng to heaven? Come, our Savior calleth thee. Come while yet the chance is given, Humbly bow to Him the knee. Turn from sin thy face away, With the world no longer stray; Greater things are thee awaiting Than the world's despair and hating. 2 Hast thou spent thy days in chasing Phantoms of delight and glee? Hast thou fondly been embracing Sin with all its agony? Oh then turn to Calvary, Let the cross thy solace be, With a heart contrite and lowly Give thyself to Jesus wholly. 3 He alone can safely guide thee On the way to yonder shore, Thou art safe with Him beside thee, Having help for thee in store, But without Him thou shalt fail, All thy wisdom, like a tale, In the final test shall perish; Jesus only thou must cherish. 4 Come ye Christians brave the weather, Courage take from God above, Like a phalanx stand together, Being one in faith and love. Keep ye Jesus ever near And His holy name revere. Help and strengthen one another Ev'ry selfish tho't to smother. 5 It is time we should be starting, Death is swiftly drawing nigh; Time, that we should be departing For a place with Christ on high. Take His cross and start today All who dare not risk delay; Come while yet the chance is given, Who will join the throng to heaven?
