<p>On that bright and golden morning, when the Son of Man shall come,<br>
And the radiance of His glory we shall see;<br>
When from ev&#8217;ry clime and nation He shall call His people home,<br>
What a gath&#8217;ring of the ransomed that will be!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">What a gath&#8217;ring, what a gath&#8217;ring,<br>
What a gath&#8217;ring of the ransomed in the summer land of love!<br>
What a gath&#8217;ring, what a gath&#8217;ring,<br>
Of the ransomed in that happy home above.</p>
<p>When the blest, who sleep in Jesus, at His bidding shall arise<br>
From the silence of the grave, and from the sea,<br>
And with bodies all celestial they shall meet Him in the skies,<br>
What a gath&#8217;ring and rejoicing there will be!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>When our eyes behold the city, with its many mansions bright,<br>
And its river, calm and restful, flowing free;<br>
When the friends that death hath parted shall in bliss again unite,<br>
What a gath&#8217;ring and a greeting there will be!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>O the King is surely coming, and the time is drawing nigh,<br>
When the bless&egrave;d day of promise we shall see;<br>
Then the changing &#8220;in a moment,&#8221; &#8220;in the twinkling of an eye,&#8221;<br>
And forever in His presence we shall be.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
