If I leave this world of sorrow Sometime before you do Just look for me in Heaven And we'll talk the ages through But if at first, you fail to see me Let me tell you where I'll be I'll be thanking Christ, my Savior For saving a wretch like me But if you should reach that City before my time has come Perhaps you'd like to great me When my race down here is run Just wait for I'll soon be coming Across life's ebbing sea And I'll tell you now, dear loved one Just where to wait for me Don't look beneath the gates of pearl Don't look on the streets of gold Don't look by the walls of jasper Nor among the many sights untold For I've been longing and I've been waiting For the Precious, Holy One to see There I'll be through the countless ages Look for me at Jesus' feet There I'll be through the countless ages Look for me at Jesus' feet
