Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A 19th-century American gospel revival song expressing the believer's confident hope of seeing Christ in heaven, grounded in the atoning work at Calvary. It envisions eternal life in a 'glory-land of light' where the redeemed reign with their risen Lord.
Verse 1
I shall see the King
Where the angels sing;
I shall see the King some day,
In the better land,
On the golden strand,
And with Him shall ever stay.
Chorus
In His glory, I shall see the King,
And forever endless praises sing;
’Twas on Calvary Jesus died for me;
I shall see the King some day.
Verse 2
In the land of song,
In the glory-throng,
Where there never comes a night,
With my Lord once slain
I shall ever reign
In the glory-land of light.
Chorus
In His glory, I shall see the King,
And forever endless praises sing;
’Twas on Calvary Jesus died for me;
I shall see the King some day.
Verse 3
I shall see the King,
All my tributes bring,
And shall look upon His face;
Then my song shall be
How He ransomed me
And has kept me by His grace.
Chorus
In His glory, I shall see the King,
And forever endless praises sing;
’Twas on Calvary Jesus died for me;
I shall see the King some day.
