Come weary traveller, fix your hope
Upon your journey's end
When unrestrained, His grace will pay
For every labour spent
Though now you toil, soon shall you rest
Though now you must contend
You soon shall be forever blessed
Upon your journey's end
See Christ, His journey's end in mind
Ascending Calvary's hill
For heaven's joy endured the cross
And bears your burdens still
See perfect love and innocence
By all the world condemned
Yet gladly there He walked, that you
Might reach your journey's end
Praise to the God of grace!
O what a sure and glorious hope!
He all our strength and praise
As we make our journey home
What storms you'll weather, trials endure
Lie far beyond your sight
Yet anxious traveller rest secure
You'll soon be raised with Christ
He walks with you through fearful days
Your sure and faithful Friend
And soon you'll see His smiling face
Upon your journey's end
Praise to the God of grace!
O what a sure and glorious hope!
He all our strength and praise
As we make our journey home
Come weary traveller, fix your hope
Upon your journey's end
When crowds of angels cheer you home
And God Himself descends
'My good and faithful servant come
You journeyed long and hard
Now everlasting joy is yours
My child, you're home at last'
Praise to the God of grace!
O what a sure and glorious hope!
He all our strength and praise
As we make our journey home
'My good and faithful servant come
You journeyed long and hard
Now everlasting joy is yours
My child, you're home at last'
