JOURNEY TO HEAVEN




In all my Lord's appointed ways,
My journey I'll pursue;
Hinder me not, ye much loved saints,
For I must go with you.


Through floods and flames, if Jesus lead,
I'll follow where he goes;
Hinder me not, shall be my cry,
Though earth and hell oppose.


“Stay,” says the world, “and taste awhile
My ev’ry pleasant sweet;”
Hinder me not, my soul replies,
Because the way is great.


“Stay,” satan, my old master, cries,
“Or force shall thee detain ;”
Hinder me not, I will be gone—
My God hath broke thy chain.


Through duty, and through trials, too.
I'll go at his command,
Hinder me not, for I am bound
To my Emmanuel's land.


And when my Saviour calls me home,
Still this my cry shall be;
Hinder me not; come, welcome death,
I'll gladly go with thee.


---Alternative verses---


Through trials and through sufferings too,
I’ll go at his command:
Hinder me not, for I am bound
To my Emmanuel’s land.
