See the happy faces waiting

See the happy faces waiting
On the banks beyond the stream;
Sweet responses still repeating Jesus,
Jesus is their theme.
See they whisper; Hark! they call me,
Sister spirit, come away;
Lo, I come, earth can’t contain me;
Hail, ye realms of endless day!
Hail, hail, hail, hail, hail the blessed Lamb;
Glory, glory, glory to His name.
