To the world above

1 To the world above, to the world above,
Where no sorrow o'er can come,
We are passing on, we are passing on
To our bright eternal home.

Chorus:
We are happy little pilgrims,
For we're on our homeward way,
Singing ever as we journey
To the never ending day.

2 All the way is plain, all the way is plain,
For our Lord has gone before;
And we hear his voice, and we hear his voice,
As it calls us evermore. [Chorus]

3 Bids us come to him, bids us come to him,
In the days of early youth;
Give to him our hearts, give to him our hearts,
Ever walk in paths of truth. [Chorus]

4 We will do his will, we will do his will,
While we live on earth below;
That when death shall come, he may call us home,
And a crown of life bestow. [Chorus]
