When I shall cross over the dark, rolling tide

Oh, what a glad meeting there'll be

For close by the beautiful, pearly white gates

My loved ones are waiting for me



(Chorus)

Waiting for me, they're waiting for me

Oh, what a glad meeting 'twill be

Waiting for me, they're waiting for me

My loved ones are waiting for me



I sometimes get weary and long to go home

But all of my work is not done

I'm glad I can labor for Jesus, my Lord

'Til sounds the sweet message "Come home"



(Repeat Chorus
