1 When on earth we have run the Chris­tian’s race,
And are ga­thered home as heirs of grace,
Safe with­in the pal­ace of our king,
His un­end­ing prais­es we shall sing.

Refrain:
We shall sing, we shall sing
With the an­gels and the ran­somed ones ab­ove;
We shall sing, we shall sing,
Praising Jesus for His great re­deem­ing love.

2 Clad in beau­ti­ful robes of spot­less white,
Truly serv­ing Him who is the light;
Heaven’s arch­es shall with mu­sic ring,
As in one glad chor­us we shall sing. [Refrain]

3 Oh! the joy when we’re ga­thered round the throne,
Our Re­deem­er’s name to praise and own;
From all pain and sor­row to be free,
We shall sing through­out eter­ni­ty! [Refrain]
