Come, Let Us Anew Our Journey Pursue

Come

let us anew our jour­ney pur­sue

Roll round with the year

And nev­er stand still till the Mas­ter ap­pear;

His ado­ra­ble will let us glad­ly ful­fill

And our tal­ents im­prove

By the pa­tience of hope

and the la­bor of love

By the pa­tience of hope

and the la­bor of love.

Our life is a dream; our time

as a stream

Glides swift­ly away

And the fu­gi­tive mo­ment re­fus­es to stay;

The ar­row is flown

the mo­ment is gone;

The mil­len­ni­al year

Rushes on to our view

and eter­ni­ty’s here

Rushes on to our view

and eter­ni­ty’s here.

O that each in the day of His com­ing may say

I have fought my way through;

I have fin­ished the work Thou didst give me to do!

O that each from his Lord

May re­ceive the glad word

Well and faith­ful­ly done!

Enter in­to My joy

and sit down on My throne!

Enter in­to My joy

and sit down on My throne!
