My Savior First of All -ins491.mid - [Play Midi]

1. When my life work is ended and I cross the swelling tide
   When the bright and glorious morning I shall see
   I shall know my Redeemer when I reach the other side
   And His smile will be the first to welcome me

2. Oh, the soul-thrilling rapture when I view His blessed face
   And the luster of His kindly beaming eye
   How my full heart will praise Him for the mercy, love and grace
   That prepares for me a mansion in the sky

3. Oh, the dear ones in glory, how they beckon me to come
   And our parting at the river I recall
   To the sweet vales of Eden they will sing my welcome home
   But I long to meet my Savior first of all

4. Thro' the gates of the city in a robe of spotless white
   He will lead me where no tears shall ever fall
   In the glad song of ages I shall mingle with delight
   But I long to meet my Savior first of all

Chorus:

I shall know Him, I shall know Him
As redeemed by His side I shall stand
I shall know Him, I shall know Him
By the print of the nails in His hand
