I know there will come the time; When my
prayers I'll place upon His lap-
When I can lean to either side, and touch
his nail scarred hands-
When the hem of His robe, brushes against
my feet as we walk side by side-
When I can see with mine own eyes; the
purity in the spirit of His love-
I know that time will come

I know there will come the time; When I'll
walk no more in shadows of death-
When I'll sit at His table, and feast on
the fruits so sweet and divine-
When the wine once bitter will quench my
thirst for eternity-
When I can feed from my palm the creatures
of wild intentions-
When I will fear no more; Worry no more;
Labor no more;
I know that time will come

I know there will come the time; When the book
of life will be opened before me-
Read by His own soft and gentle voice-
When my name will be found in ancient scripts; When
the final roll is called through yonder skies-
When the pains of my earthly body will fade to dust;
I know that time will come; When I'll rest
forever in His everlasting arms
