602 O Brother Be Faithful
[1]
O brother be faithful! soon Jesus will come
For whom we have waited so long;
O soon we shall enter our glorious home
And join in the conqueror s song.
O brother be faithful! for why should we prove
Unfaithful to Him who hath shown
Such deep such unbounded and infinite love;
Who died to redeem us His own.

O brother be faithful! the city of gold
Prepared for the good and the blest
Is waiting its portals of pearl to unfold
And welcome thee into thy rest.
Then brother prove faithful! not long shall we stay
In weariness here and forlorn
Time s dark night of sorrow is wearing away
We haste to the glorious morn.

O brother be faithful! He soon will descend
Creation s omnipotent King
While legions of angels His chariot attend
And palm wreaths of victory bring.
O brother be faithful! and soon shalt thou hear
Thy Savior pronounce the glad word
Well done faithful servant thy title is clear
To enter the joy of thy Lord.

O brother be faithful! eternity s years
Shall tell for thy faithfulness now
When bright smiles of gladness shall scatter thy tears
A coronet gleam on thy brow.
O brother be faithful! the promise is sure
That waits for the faithful and tried;
To reign with the ransomed immortal and pure
And ever with Jesus abide.
