Methodist-Hymns-696
1: CHILDREN of the heavenly King,
As ye journey, sweetly sing;
Sing your Savior’s worthy praise,
Glorious in His works and ways
2: We are traveling home to God,
In the way the fathers trod;
They are happy now, and we
Soon their happiness shall see.
3: Shout, ye little flock, and blest;
You on Jesus’ throne shall rest;
There your seat is now prepared,
There your kingdom and reward.
4: Lift your eyes, ye sons of light;
Zion’s city is in sight;
There our endless home shall be,
There our Lord we soon shall see.
5: Fear not, brethren; joyful stand
On the borders of your land;
Jesus christ, your Father’s Son,
Bids you underdismayed go on.
6: Lord, obedient we would go,
Gladly leaving all below;
Only Thou our Leader be;
And we will still follow Thee.
