Soon will our Savior
from Heaven appear,
Sweet is the hope
and its power to cheer;
All will be changed
by a glimpse of His face;
This is the goal at
the end of our race.
Oh, what a change!
Oh, what a change!
When I shall see His wonderful face!
Oh, what a change!
Oh, what a change!
When I shall see His face!
Loneliness changed
to reunion complete,
Absence exchanged
for a place at His feet,
Sleeping ones raised
in a moment of time,
Living ones changed
to His image sublime.
Oh, what a change!
Oh, what a change!
When I shall see His wonderful face!
Oh, what a change!
Oh, what a change!
When I shall see His face!
Sunrise will chase
all the darkness away,
Night will be changed
to the brightness of day,
Tempests will change
to ineffable calm,
Weeping will change
to a jubilant psalm.
Oh, what a change!
Oh, what a change!
When I shall see His wonderful face!
Oh, what a change!
Oh, what a change!
When I shall see His face!
Weakness will change
to magnificent strength,
Failure will change
to perfection at length,
Sorrow will change
to unending delight,
Walking by faith
change to walking by sight.
Oh, what a change!
Oh, what a change!
When I shall see His wonderful face!
Oh, what a change!
Oh, what a change!
When I shall see His face!
