A few more marchings weary, Then we’ll gather home! A few more storm clouds dreary, Then we’ll gather home! A few more days the cross to bear, And then with Christ a crown to wear; A few more marchings weary, Then we’ll gather home!
Refrain: O’er time’s rapid river, Soon we’ll rest forever; No more marchings weary When we gather home!
A few more nights of weeping, Then we’ll gather home! A few more watches keeping, Then we’ll gather home! A few more vict’ries over sin, A few more sheaves to gather in, A few more marchings weary, Then we’ll gather home!
A few more sweet links broken, Then we’ll gather home! A few more kind words spoken, Then we’ll gather home! A few more partings on the strand, And then away to Canaan’s land: A few more marchings weary, Then we’ll gather home!
