[Music]
O when shall I see Jesus And reign with Him above,
Shout glory, halle, hallelujah;
And from the flowing fountain Drink everlasting love?
Shout glory, halle, hallelujah.
When we all get to heaven we will shout aloud and sing,
Shout glory halle, hallelujah.
Religion is a fortune
And heaven is a home,
Shout glory, halle, hallelujah.
When shall I be delivered from this vain world of sin,
And with my blessed Jesus drink endless pleasures in?
The text core is generally ascribed to John Leland (1754-1844). See
_White Spirituals_, 217ff. Further stanzas are given under 'Faithful
Soldier'.
