1 I hope to meet you all in glory,
When the storms of life are o’er;
I hope to tell the dear old story,
On the blessèd shining shore.

Refrain:
On the shining shore,
On the golden strand,
In our Father’s home,
In the happy land:
I hope to meet you there,
I hope to meet you there—
A crown of victory wear—
In glory.

2 I hope to meet you all in glory,
By the tree of life so fair;
I hope to praise our dear Redeemer
For the grace that brought me there. [Refrain]

3 I hope to meet you all in glory,
Round the Savior’s throne above;
I hope to join the ransomed army
Singing now redeeming love. [Refrain]

4 I hope to meet you all in glory,
When my work on earth is o’er;
I hope to clasp your hands rejoicing
On the bright eternal shore. [Refrain]
