I’ll Be There (Ward)

lyricist: Vallie Ward, 1912
Composer: William Slater

I have start­ed on my jour­ney

To that bet­ter land ab­ove

Hallelujah! in that morn­ing I’ll be there;

I am walk­ing with my Sav­ior

Singing of His won­drous love

Hallelujah! in the morn­ing I’ll be there.

I’ll be there

yes

I’ll be there

When that morn­ing breaks eter­nal

bright and fair;

Come and go with me to glo­ry

Where we’ll rest for­ev­er­more

Hallelujah! in that morn­ing I’ll be there.

If I trust my pre­cious Sav­ior

And His bless­èd word ob­ey

Hallelujah! in that morn­ing I’ll be there;

He has pro­mised to be with me

And to lead me all the way

Hallelujah! in that morn­ing I’ll be there.

Then when this short life is ov­er

And my work on earth is done

Hallelujah! in that morn­ing I’ll be there;

I will en­ter life eter­nal

There to wear a shin­ing crown

Hallelujah! in that morn­ing I’ll be there.

Come and go with me

dear bro­ther

To that bless­èd home ab­ove

Hallelujah! in that morn­ing I’ll be there;

There we’ll meet our bless­èd Sav­ior

And all those we used to know

Hallelujah! in that morn­ing I’ll be there.
