A Few More Marchings Weary

Fanny Crosby • English

Primary Scripture: Isaiah 27:12

Verse 1

A few more marchings weary, then we’ll gather home! A few more storm clouds dreary, then we’ll gather home! A few more days the cross to bear, And then with Christ a crown to wear; A few more marchings weary, then we’ll gather home!

Chorus

O’er time’s rapid river, soon we’ll rest forever; No more marchings weary when we gather home!

Verse 2

A few more nights of weeping, then we’ll gather home! A few more watches keeping, then we’ll gather home! A few more vict’ries over sin, A few more sheaves to gather in, A few more marchings weary, then we’ll gather home!

Chorus

O’er time’s rapid river, soon we’ll rest forever; No more marchings weary when we gather home!

Verse 3

A few more sweet links broken, then we’ll gather home! A few more kind words spoken, then we’ll gather home! A few more partings on the strand, And then away to Canaan’s land: A few more marchings weary, then we’ll gather home!

Chorus

O’er time’s rapid river, soon we’ll rest forever; No more marchings weary when we gather home!
