The Cyber Hymnal ‎#12954

12954. We Are Coming

1 We are marching onward, upward,
We are traveling toward the prize;
And if Jesus is our watchword,
We will reach the upper skies.

Refrain:
We are coming, blessed Savior,
To the consecrated cross;
And we’ll ever live for Jesus,
Counting all things else as loss.

2 We will wash our robes, and make them
Pure and spotless as the throne,
So that when we reach that haven,
We shall know as we are known. [Refrain]

3 We will drink the living water;
We will lie in pastures green;
We will live, to live hereafter,
When we reach the great unseen. [Refrain]
