1. Will I empty-handed be
When beside the crystal sea
I shall stand before the everlasting throne?
Must I have a heart of shame
As I answer to my name,
With no works that my Redeemer there can own.
When beside the crystal sea
I shall stand before the everlasting throne?
Must I have a heart of shame
As I answer to my name,
With no works that my Redeemer there can own.
2. When the harvest days are past,
Shall I hear Him say at last,
"Welcome, toiler, I've prepared for thee a place?"
Shall I bring Him golden sheaves,
Ripened fruit, not faded leaves,
When I see the blessed Savior face to face?
Shall I hear Him say at last,
"Welcome, toiler, I've prepared for thee a place?"
Shall I bring Him golden sheaves,
Ripened fruit, not faded leaves,
When I see the blessed Savior face to face?
3. When the books are opened wide,
And the deeds of all are tried,
May I have a record whiter than the snow.
When my race on earth is run,
May I hear Him say, "Well done,"
Take the crown that love immortal doth bestow.
And the deeds of all are tried,
