My Saviour First Of All

  7  -8   8    8   8  8  8
When my life-work is end-ed,

-8  7   8    7    7   -6    6
And I cross the swell-ing tide,

  6   6    7     7   7    7
When the bright and glo-rious

  7   8 -8   7   -8
morn-ing I shall see;

8  -9     9   7 -8   8  8
I shall know my Re-deem-er

  6  6  -6   -6  -6  -6   7
When I reach the oth-er side,

-7  -6    6    6    7
And His smile will be

 8    8   -8 -6   -7   7
the first to wel-come me.

I shall know Him, I shall know Him

 7  -8    8    8 -9   8  -8   7    -8
And re-deemed by His side I shall stand

8  -9     9   8  -9   8    -8  -6
I shall know Him, I shall know Him,

-7 -6    6    7  8  8 -8  -6 -7    7
By the print of the nails in His hand.

verse 2

Oh, the soul-thrilling rapture
when I view His blessed face
And the luster of His kindly beaming eye;
How my full heart will praise Him
for the mercy, love and grace,
That prepare for me a mansion in the sky.

verse 3

Oh, the dear ones in glory,
how they beckon me to come,
And our parting at the river I recall;
To the sweet vales of Eden
they will sing my welcome home;
But I long to meet my Saviour first of all.

verse 4

Thro' the gates to the city
in a robe of spotless white,
He will lead me where no tears will ever fail;
In the gladsong of ages
I shall mingle with delight;
But I long to meet my Saviour first of all.
