[Verse 1]
C
When I can read my title clear
Am F C
To mansions beyond this life,
C
I'll bid farewell to every fear,
Am G C
And wipe my weeping eyes.
C
Then I will bathe my weary soul
Am F C
In seas of heav'nly rest,
C
And not a wave of trouble will roll
Am G C
Across my peaceful breast.
[Chorus]
Am Em F C
Blest be the Lamb, my dearest Lord,
Am G C
Who bought me with his blood,
Am Em F C
And quenched his Father's flaming sword
Am G C
In his own vital flood
[Verse 2]
C
Should earth a war against me wage,
Am F C
And hellish darts be hurled,
C
Then I can laugh at Satan's rage,
Am G C
And face a frowning world
C
The Lamb, He freed my captive soul
Am F C
From Satan's heavy chains,
C
And sent the lion down to howl
Am G C
Where hell and horror reign.
[Verse 3]
C
Let cares like a deluge come,
Am F C
And storms of sorrow fall,
C
May I but safely reach my home,
Am G C
My God, my heav'n, my all!
