�A little while!�
Our Lord shall come,
And we shall wander here no more;
He�ll take us to our Father�s home,
Where He for us has gone before,
To dwell with Him, to see His face,
And sing the glories of His grace.
�A little while!�
He�ll come again;
Let us the precious hours redeem;
Our only grief to give Him pain,
Our joy to serve and follow Him;
Watching and ready may we be,
As those who long their Lord to see.
�A little while!�
�Twill soon be past;
Why should we shun
the shame and cross?
O let us in His footsteps haste,
Counting for Him all else but loss;
Oh, how will recompense His smile
The suffering of this little while!
�A little while!�
Come, Saviour, come!
For Thee Thy Bride has waited long;
Oh, take Thy wearied pilgrims home,
To sing the new, eternal song,
To see Thy glory, and to be
In everything conformed to Thee!
