Only A While

Only a while till my course is run,

Only a while till the set of sun.

Tears will be dried, every care set aside,

Only a while till my Savior comes!

Then look not to men, trust in Jesus alone;

Though this world reels in sin, God is still on His throne!

And it may be today that He'll come for His own,

Only a while till my Savior comes!

This world is dark and the nights are long,

Nations collide and they do not cease.

His peace will come, into every dear soul

Only a while till my Savior comes!

Then look not to men, trust Jesus alone;

Though this world reels in sin, God is still on His throne!

And it may be today that He'll come for His own,

Only a while till my Savior comes!
