Song | Oh Come, Angel Band |
Artist | Johnny Cash |
Album | A Believer Sings the Truth |
My latest sun is sinking fast, | |
My race is nearly run; | |
My strongest trials now are past, | |
My triumph is begun. | |
Refrain:Oh, come, angel band, | |
Come and around me stand; | |
Oh, bear me away on your snowy wings | |
To my eternal home; | |
Oh, bear me away on your snowy wings | |
To my eternal home. | |
I know Im near the holy ranks | |
Of friends and kindred dear | |
I hear the waves on | |
Jordans banks, | |
The crossing must be near. | |
Ive almost reached my heavnly home, | |
My spirit loudly sings; | |
Thy holy ones, behold, they come! | |
I hear the noise of wings. | |
Oh, bear my longing heart to | |
Him,Who bled and died for me; | |
Whose blood now cleanses from all sin, | |
And gives me victory. |
My latest sun is sinking fast, | |
My race is nearly run | |
My strongest trials now are past, | |
My triumph is begun. | |
Refrain: Oh, come, angel band, | |
Come and around me stand | |
Oh, bear me away on your snowy wings | |
To my eternal home | |
Oh, bear me away on your snowy wings | |
To my eternal home. | |
I know I m near the holy ranks | |
Of friends and kindred dear | |
I hear the waves on | |
Jordan s banks, | |
The crossing must be near. | |
I ve almost reached my heav nly home, | |
My spirit loudly sings | |
Thy holy ones, behold, they come! | |
I hear the noise of wings. | |
Oh, bear my longing heart to | |
Him, Who bled and died for me | |
Whose blood now cleanses from all sin, | |
And gives me victory. |
