Singing of Jesus (Woolsey)

Composer: Philip Woolsey, 1881

Singing of Je­sus

the Babe in the man­ger;

Singing of Je­sus

to me once a strang­er;

Singing of Je­sus

the meek

lowly Teach­er;

Trying to serve Him awhile here be­low.

Singing of Je­sus

my shep­herd and guide;

Singing of Je­sus

in whom I con­fide;

Singing of Je­sus

and tell­ing to oth­ers

What a dear Sav­ior in Je­sus I find.

Oh

when shall I see Him in glo­ry

In glo­ry

in glo­ry?

Oh

when shall I see Him in glo­ry

Where part­ing will nev­er be?

Singing of Je­sus

my shield from all dan­ger;

Singing of Je­sus

my bless­èd Re­deem­er;

Singing of Je­sus

the lov­ing One call­ing

After the lost ones as­tray from the fold.

Singing of Je­sus by day and by night;

Singing of Je­sus in weak­ness or might;

Singing of Je­sus

who

more than all oth­ers

Cares for His flock

and will bring them safe home.

Singing of Je­sus

the King of high Heav­en

Singing of Je­sus

the Light of that king­dom;

Singing of Je­sus

the Friend of all sin­ners

Trying to tell of His love in my song.

Singing of Je­sus

my true and tried friend;

Singing of Je­sus till this life shall end;

Singing of Je­sus

in Heav­en with an­gels

Ever to sing of His won­der­ful love.

Oh then I’ll be with Him in glo­ry

In glo­ry

in glo­ry

Oh then I’ll be with Him in glo­ry

Where parting will nev­er be.
