236. We’ll Be Gathered Home

1 Bless the name of Christ the Lord for his soul reviving word,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye,
Happy tho’t that fills the soul as we journey to the goal,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye.

Refrain:
Bye and bye,
Bye and bye,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye
Bye and bye,
Bye and bye,
Bye and bye,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye.

2 Life eternal life is sure, if we faithfully endure,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye,
We can stem the rising tide with the Savior by our side,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye. [Refrain]

3 We have many trials here, but the Lord will soon appear,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye,
He will bear us in his love to his perfect rest above,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye. [Refrain]

4 We will trust and never fear for the triumph’s drawing near,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye,
If we only toil and wait soon beyond the golden gate,
We’ll be gathered home to Jesus bye and bye. [Refrain]
