Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.821

First Line: Sing on, ye joyful pilgrims,

Sing on, ye joyful pilgrims,
Nor think the moments long ;
My faith is heavenward rising
With every tuneful song !
Lo ! on the mount of blessing,
The glorious mount, I stand,
And, looking over Jordan,
I see the promised land !

Sing on : oh, blissful music !
With every note you raise
My heart is filled with rapture,
t My soul is lost in praise !
Sing on : oh, blissful music !
With every note you raise
My heart is filled with rapture,
My soul is lost in praise !

2 Sing on, ye joyful pilgrims !
While here on earth we stay,
Let songs of home and Jesus
Beguile each fleeting day ;
Sing on the grand old story
Of His redeeming love —
The everlasting chorus
That fills the realms above.

3 Sing on, ye joyful pilgrims !
The time will not be long,
Till in our Father's kingdom
We sing a nobler song !
Where those we love are waiting
To greet us on the shore,
We'll meet beyond the river,
Where surges roll no more.
