EN 4325 Christ Will Gather in His Own

John.12.26

Versi Version 1

1

Christ will gather in His own

To the place where He is gone,

Where their heart and treasure lie,

Where our life is hid on high.

2

Day by day the voice saith, “Come,

Enter thine eternal home”;

Asking not if we can spare

This dear soul it summons there.

3

Had He asked us, well we know

We should cry, “O spare this blow!”

Yes, with streaming tears should pray,

“Lord, we love him, let him stay.”

[substitute her if appropriate]

4

But the Lord doth naught amiss,

And, since He hath ordered this,

We have naught to do but still

Rest in silence on His will.

5

Many a heart no longer here,

Ah! was all too inly dear,

Yet, O Love, ’tis Thou dost call,

Thou wilt be our All in all.
