A few more years shall roll, A few more seasons come, And we shall be with those that rest Asleep within the tomb; Then, O my Lord, prepare My soul for that great day. O wash me in Thy precious blood, And take my sins away. A few more suns shall set O'er these dark hills of time, And we shall be where suns are not A far serener clime: Then, O my Lord, prepare My soul for that blest day. O wash me in Thy precious blood, And take my sins away. A few more storms shall beat On this wild rocky shore, And we shall be where tempests cease, And surges swell no more; Then, O my Lord, prepare My soul for that calm day. O wash me in Thy precious blood, And take my sins away. A few more struggles here, A few more partings o'er, A few more toils, a few more tears, And we shall weep no more: Then, O my Lord, prepare My soul for that bright day. O wash me in Thy precious blood, And take my sins away. 'Tis but a little while, And He shall come again Who died that we might live, Who lives That we with Him may reign; Then, O my Lord, prepare My soul for that glad day. O wash me in Thy precious blood, And take my sins away.
