Hymn/Song Information

There's a voice full of sweetness and lo

There’s a voice full
of sweetness and love,
It is speaking so kindly to me:
“I will lead you to bright realms above,
the spirit forever is free.”

I am waiting, I am longing
for the summons to come,
When from sorrow and trouble I’m free;
When with Jesus I am reigning
in that heavenly home,
Where forever its beauties I’ll see.

When I look o’er, the past I behold
How His wide arms of mercy held me;
Oh, His sweet love
and peace are untold,
In His favor I’m happy and free.

I am waiting, I am longing
for the summons to come,
When from sorrow and trouble I’m free;
When with Jesus I am reigning
in that heavenly home,
Where forever its beauties I’ll see.

There’s a sweet voice
that calls o’er and o’er,
It is cheering my spirit today;
Since my treasure is on yonder shore,
I must gain it and live there for aye.

I am waiting, I am longing
for the summons to come,
When from sorrow and trouble I’m free;
When with Jesus I am reigning
in that heavenly home,
Where forever its beauties I’ll see.

I forget all the things that are past,
I am looking to glories divine;
I shall reap my reward at the last,
For my Jesus, dear Savior, is mine.

I am waiting, I am longing
for the summons to come,
When from sorrow and trouble I’m free;
When with Jesus I am reigning
in that heavenly home,
Where forever its beauties I’ll see.
