Lyrics

The judg­ment day
Is com­ing to each soul;
Will grief be yours,
While end­less ag­es roll?

Refrain

Trust on, pray on,
Thro’ sor­row’s dark­est hour;
Trust on, pray on,
Fear not the tempt­er’s pow’r.

I’ve loved ones gone
To Hea­ven’s land so fair;
When Je­sus calls,
I’ll go to meet them there.

Refrain

Our sins shall all
Tho’ now in gloom con­cealed,
Be brought to light,
When re­cords are re­vealed.

Refrain

O Lord, may I
Be dressed in spot­less white,
When I shall reach
That bless­èd land of light.

Refrain

I want to walk
Within that nar­row way,
And hear Well done,
When comes the judg­ment day.
