lyrics

1. Here, O my Lord, I see Thee face to face;
Here would I touch and handle things unseen;
Here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace,
And all my weariness upon Thee lean.

[Chorus]
Hallelujah! Come, Lord Jesus, Come!
Take me to the eternal home!

2. This is the hour of banquet and of song;
This is the heavenly table spread for me;
Here let me feast, and feasting, still prolong
The hallowed hour of fellowship with Thee.

3. Here would I feed upon the bread of God,
Here drink with Thee the royal wine of Heaven;
Here would I lay aside each earthly load,
Here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiven.

[Chorus]
Hallelujah! Come, Lord Jesus, Come!
Take me to the eternal home!

4. Mine is the sin, but Thine the righteousness:
Mine is the guilt, but Thine the cleansing blood;
Here is my robe, my refuge, and my peace;
Thy Blood, Thy righteousness, O Lord my God!

[Chorus]
Hallelujah! Come, Lord Jesus, Come!
Take me to the eternal home!
