I Have a Future All Sublime

Nils Frykman (1883) • Gustaf Frykman • English

Primary Scripture: Job 19:25-27

Verse 1

I have a future all sublime, Beyond the realms of space and time, Where my Redeemer I shall see, And sorrow nevermore shall be.

Verse 2

A precious heritage is mine; ’Tis kept above by love divine; And while I tarry here below, He gives me what is best, I know.

Verse 3

O, God be praised, He planned for me; From anxious care I’m spared and free; He bids me cast on Him my care— What then remains for me to bear?

Verse 4

Sweet peace within my soul doth dwell; With joy I sing: Now all is well, He leads me safely by His hand Until I reach the Glory Land.

Verse 5

O precious Savior, teach Thou me To live my life more true to Thee The little while I yet must roam Before I reach my heav’nly home.
