[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
How cheering is the Christian’s hope,
While toiling here below!
It bouys us up while passing through
This wilderness of woe.

[Verse 2]
It bouys us up while this passing through
This wilderness of woe,
It bouys us up while passing through
This wilderness of woe.

[Verse 3]
Fly, lingering moments, fly, O, fly,
Dear Savior, quickly come!
We long to see Thee as Thou art,
And reach that blissful home.
