Are the Signals All Right?

Composer: William Penn

Welcome

band of true toil­ers

Who by thou­sands are found

On the hun­dreds of rail­ways

And the sta­tions around;

There’s a quest­ion con­cern­ing

Heaven’s call­ing so bright:

Are you hap­py in Je­sus

Are the sig­nals all right?

With a clear shin­ing light

Is your lamp burn­ing bright?

Have you oil in your ves­sels?

Are the sig­nals all right?

By the red lights of dan­ger

Have you left the down line?

By the green lights of cau­tion

Have you know­ledge div­ine?

Can you say when on du­ty

Either day­time or night

I am hap­py in Je­sus

And the sig­nals are right?

With a love for Christ’s serv­ice

And your soul well sup­plied

With in­spir­èd di­rect­ions

Fully test­ed and tried;

With the points set for glo­ry

With the me­tals all tight

Are you hap­py in Je­sus

And the sig­nals all right?

And at last when your jour­neys

Up and down shall be done

And life’s train shall in tri­umph

To the ter­mi­nus come;

Will you sing as you’re near­ing

Heaven’s stores of de­light

Praise the Lord! Hal­le­lu­jah!

All the sig­nals are right?

With a clear shin­ing light

Yes

my lamp’s burn­ing bright

I am hap­py in Je­sus

With the sig­nals all right.
