From east and west, from north and south That countless host shall throng, Unnumbered as the sea’s white sands Its myriads pass along. Refrain Their song shall ring as loud they sing While gladly marching on, They tribute bring to Christ the King, When cares of life are done. 2. With palms of victory shall they come, While marching proud and grand As free from toil they near that home Within the promised land. [Refrain] 3. From tribulations great they come With robes made white and fair, By washing in the precious blood Of Christ their Captain there. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: GATHERING
