Time's Farewell

1IT is the hour of Time's farewell,
And soon with Jesus we shall dwell;
The speeding moments hasten on,
And quickly they will all be gone.

RefrainI'm going, I'm going, I'm on my journey home;
I'm traveling to a City just in sight !
Yes, I'm going, I'm going, I'm on my journey home;
I'm traveling to the New Jerusalem.

2Then will the sleeping martyrs rise,
To meet the Saviour in the skies–
No more will cry, "How long O Lord!"
But be aveng'd, and have reward.

3Then will the sleeping saints come forth,
Who lie entomb'd in sea and earth.
And rob'd in immortality,
Their Jesus face to face will see.

4The living saints–they too will be
Remembered in the Jubilee;
Caught up together in the air,
Their Saviour's triumph they will share.
