Oh, to be with My Savior!

Oh, to be with my Savior!
My soul longs to go.
To forget the chains of the tired old earth,
and the wonders of heaven know.

Oh, to be with my Savior!
And sit at Jesus's feet.
To be still and know that I am His,
and comprehend a love so sweet.

Oh, to be with my Savior!
Firm in the Redeemer's hand.
Never more to stray far from grace,
alone on Him, my soul will stand.

Oh, to be with my Savior!
At last face to face.
Undeserved, but unashamed,
I'll run to His embrace.

Oh, to be with my Savior!
And with the angels sing,
"Holy, Holy, Holy!
is our resurrected King!"

Oh, to be with my Savior!
Pain and death no more.
I'll sit and weep tears of joy,
as I sit at heaven's door.

Oh, to be with my Savior!
To be still and contemplate,
the wonder at all that I've finally reached,
the shining pearly gates.

Oh, to be with my Savior!
And know what Holy is.
No longer ignorant of how great our God;
and know the weight of sin.

Oh, to be with my Savior!
Made perfect in His love.
Jesus's grace is solely the reason,
I'll be able to reach heaven above.

Oh, to be with my Savior!
And from His blessed lips,
hear, "Well done, good and faithful servant!
Now enter into eternal bliss."
