Till the Savior Comes

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1878
Composer: Howard Doane

Bright till our Lord’s re­turn­ing

Till the Sav­ior comes;

Oh

may our lamps be burn­ing

Till the Sav­ior comes.

Here in sweet com­mun­ion

Watching

wait­ing ev­er

Let us dwell in bond of un­ion

Till the Sav­ior comes.

Why should our hearts grow wea­ry

Till the Sav­ior comes?

Why should our way be drea­ry

Till the Sav­ior comes?

Watch

while our bur­den bear­ing

Till the Sav­ior comes;

Pray

while our la­bor shar­ing

Till the Sav­ior comes.

Count ev­ery pain a plea­sure

Till the Sav­ior comes;

Trust for our heav­en­ly trea­sure

Till the Sav­ior comes.

Love be our joy­ful sto­ry

Till the Sav­ior comes

Love and our home in glo­ry

Till the Sav­ior comes.
