When He Calls Us Away
1. For so long God’s children have looked toward the Heavens,
Watching and listening for the trumpet to sound.
We’re all kind of homesick and we’re anxiously waiting,
For that glorious morning when we rise from the ground.
Chorus: So lift your head weary pilgrim for soon He is coming.
We know not the moment when we’ll see His face.
Fight on wounded soldier, hold on a few more days.
It will be worth it all when He calls us away.
2. We have been through the fire but we’re not defeated.
We’ve climbed many mountains on our journey toward home.
Soon the race will be finished and triumphant we will rise.
Oh, what a day when we meet Him in those Eastern skies.
