Hymn/Song Information

How solemn the signal I hear The summons that call




How solemn the signal I hear!
The summons that calls me away;
In regions unknown to appear,
How shall I the summons obey?


What scenes in that world shall arise,
When life’s latest sigh shall be fled,
And darkness has sealed up mine eyes,
And deep in the dust I am laid?


No longer the world can I view,
The scenes which so long I have known;
My friends, I must bid you adieu,
For here I must travel alone;


Yet here my Redeemer has trod,
His hallowed footsteps I know;
I’ll trust for defense to his rod,
And lean on his staff as I go.


Dear Shepherd of Israel, lead on,
My soul follows hard after thee;
The phantoms of death are all down,
When Jesus my Shepherd I see.


Dear brethren and sisters, I go
To wait your arrival above;
Be faithful, and soon you shall know,
The triumphs and joys of his love.
