  1. 1Children of the heav’nly King,As ye Journey sweetly sing;Sing your Savior’s worthy praise,Glorious in His works and ways.Shout, ye ransomed ones and blest,You on Jesus’ throne shall rest:There your seat is now prepared,There your glory and reward.
  2. 2Lift your eyes, ye sons of light!Zion’s city is in sight:There our endless home shall be,There our Lord we soon shall see.Fear not, brethren, joyful standOn the borders of your land;Jesus Christ, your Father’s Son,Bids you undismayed go on.
  3. 3Lord, obediently we go,Gladly leaving all below:Only, Lord, our Leader be,That we still may follow Thee.
