1 He that win­neth souls is wise,
He will en­ter pa­ra­dise,
He will dwell in man­sions state­ly, grand and fair;
When he lays life’s bur­den down,
He will wear a roy­al crown;
He will shine like the stars ov­er there.

Refrain:
Will you shine like the stars ov­er there?
Will you dwell in the man­sions so fair?
When you lay life’s bur­den down,
Will you wear a roy­al crown?
Will you shine like the stars ov­er there?

2 He that win­neth souls is wise,
He will win the heav’n­ly prize,
He will stand among the ran­somed, pure and fair;
He will palms of vic­t’ry bear,
And the glory he will share;
He will shine like the stars ov­er there. [Refrain]

3 He that win­neth souls is wise,
He hath made the sac­ri­fice;
He hath lived the life of faith and hope and prayer;
He will wear a robe of white
In the city of de­light;
He will shine like the stars ove­r there. [Refrain]
