C. R. Blackall • English
Primary Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:25
Verse 1
The prize is set before us, To win, His words our Lord implore us, The eye of God is o'er us From on high; His loving tones are calling, While sin is dark, appalling, 'Tis Jesus gently calling, He is nigh.
Chorus
By and by we shall meet Him, By and by we shall greet Him, And with Jesus live in glory, By and by; By and by we shall meet Him, By and by we shall greet Him, And with Jesus live in glory, By and by.
Verse 2
We'll follow where He leadeth, We'll pasture where He feedeth, We'll yield to Him who pleadeth From on high; Then naught from Him shall sever, Our hope shall brighten ever, And faith shall fail us never, He is nigh.
Chorus
By and by we shall meet Him, By and by we shall greet Him, And with Jesus live in glory, By and by; By and by we shall meet Him, By and by we shall greet Him, And with Jesus live in glory, By and by.
Verse 3
Our home is bright above us, No trials dark to move us, But Jesus dear to love us There on high; We'll give Him best endeavor, And praise His name forever; His precious words can never, Never die.
Chorus
By and by we shall meet Him, By and by we shall greet Him, And with Jesus live in glory, By and by; By and by we shall meet Him, By and by we shall greet Him, And with Jesus live in glory, By and by.
