A Few More Years

1A few more years shall roll, A few more sea-sons come,
And we shall be with those that rest A-sleep with-in the tomb;
A few more suns shall set O'er these dark hills of time,
And we shall be where suns are not, A far se-ren-er clime.

2A few more storms shall beat On this wild rock-y shore,
And we shall be where tem-pests cease, And surg-es swell no more;
A few more strug-gles here, A few more part-ings o'er,
A few more toils, a few more tears, And we shall weep no more.

3'Tis but a lit-tle while, And He shall come a-gain,
Who died that we might live, who lives That we with Him might reign;
Then, O my Lord, pre-pare My soul for that great day;
O wash me in Thy pre-cious blood, And take my sins a-way.
