"As the leaf by wind is taken, raise me up above the sky."//
2
When upon this Earth the flowers and the sun cease to exist.
When the sweet songs of the birds,
Winter comes to silence down,
When my songs of olden day, none will want to hear again,
And the sky's enchanting color fades away from tender blue.
//1 will not be here to witness, there's a better place to see,
And to my dear Lord in heaven, I will sing above the sky.//
3
When the Christians of our ages are not found across the globe,
When the laughter of the children our ears no longer hear,
When the precious hymns of our days none can ever sing again,
When the Church's faithful Brethren
Will no longer come to praise.
//1 will not be here to see it, I will fly across the sky,
At the Weddings of the Lamb, with my Jesus I will be.//

131. OH, HOW GLORIOUS ... !
...................... ..... CUAN GLORJOSA. SERA .......................... .
Rev 2.23 DAWNING/ Matt 25.32 ADVENT
Oh, how glorious that great morning shall be
When the Master and Savior will return!
All the nations united just as sisters,
We will welcome the Lord in His return.
CHORUS
We will never have the need for the splendor of the light,
Nor shall the sun ever shine, or give us any more heat
No one shall be crying there, or feel sadness or any pain,
For our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of heaven,
He will give consolation to our souls.
2
We await Him in this glorious morning,
When we welcome the only God of love;
Where all things will be happiness and gladness,
In this most holy presence of the Lord
