A little while and He shall come;
The hour draws on a pace;
The blessed hour, the glorious morn;
When we shall see His face.
How light our trials then will seem;
How short our pilgrim way !
Our life a fitful dream;
Dispelled by dawning day.
Then come Lord Jesus, quickly come;
In glory and in light !
Come take Thy longing children home;
And end earth’s weary night.
