Come, let us join our friends above That have obtained the prize, And on the eagle wings of love To joy celestial rise.
2. Let all the saints terrestrial sing With those to glory gone ; For all the servants of our King, In earth and heaven, are one.
3. One family, we dwell in Him, One Church, above, beneath, Though now divided by the stream, The narrow stream of death ;
4. One army of the living God, To His command we bow; Part of His host hath crossed the flood, And part is crossing now.
5. Our spirits too shall quickly join Like theirs with glory crowned, And shout to see our Captain's sign, To hear His trumpet sound.
6. Oh that we now might grasp our Guide ! Oh that the word were given ! Come, Lord of Hosts, the waves divide, And land us all in heaven.
