Songs He de­light­eth to hear;
Saved by the pow’r of the King who has bought us,
With mer­ri­est hearts to Je­sus our king;
Hath filled with suns the fields of space,
And cross ov­er in the storm.
Forth to the fields of wav­ing grain?
I’ll be rea­dy when He comes.
But He’ll come (yes, He’ll come), by and by (by and by);
He is ris’n, He is not here:
Jesus will give you rest.
The dis­ci­ples came to land,
Justified by His life pure and clean,
Jesus will give you rest.
The dis­ci­ples came to land,
Justified by His life pure and clean,
Of in­fi­nite love,
Of in­fi­nite love,
Jesus, I’ll fol­low Thee all the way,
Will you not send a mes­sage of warn­ing un­to each one?
Back to the words of our Sav­ior,

ob­ey­ing

Waiting till He shall ap­pear.
Showing to oth­ers the joy He has brought us,
United and lov­ing, we ev­er re­joice.
The peo­pled worlds ful­fill their race.
I am trust­ing, Lord, in Thee.
Gather the sheaves that strew the plain?
I’ll be rea­dy when He comes;
But with glad­ness rise to meet Him in the sky.
Thrills the world with hope and cheer.
Leaving the path of sin,
For the Mas­ter called un­to them,
Glorified when re­turn­eth my Lord.
Leaving the path of sin,
For the Mas­ter called un­to them,
Glorified when re­turn­eth my Lord.
And watch­ing with pray­er,
And watch­ing with pray­er,
This I will do with Je­sus!
Soon they will all be lost in des­pair;
Never in sects to be scat­tered,
