My Savior First Of All Lyrics & Chords

By Frances J. Crosby

When my (G)life work is ended and I (C)cross that swelling (Am)tide

When the(D)bright and glorious(D)morning I shall (G)see(D)

I shall (G)know my redeemer when I (C)reach the otherside

And His (G)smile will be the (D)first to welcome (G)me



Chorus

I shall(D) know Him, I shall (G)know Him

As re(A)deemed by His side I shall (D)stand

I shall (G)know Him, I shall (C)know Him

By the (G)print of the (D)nails in His (G)hands



Oh, the soul-thrilling rapture when I view His blessed face,

And the luster of His kindly beaming eye;

How my full heart will praise Him for the mercy, love and grace,

That prepare for me a mansion in the sky. 



Oh, the dear ones in glory, how they beckon me to come,

And our parting at the river I recall;

To the sweet vales of Eden they will sing my welcome home;

But I long to meet my Savior first of all. 



Through the gates to the city in a robe of spotless white,

He will lead me where no tears will ever fall;

In the glad song of ages I shall mingle with delight;

But I long to meet my Savior first of all.
