Henry Ostrom
(1862-1941)
Jesus may come today,
Glad day, glad day!
And I would see my friend;
Dangers and troubles would end
If Jesus should come today.
Chorus:
Glad day, glad day!
Is it the crowning day?
I’ll live for today, nor anxious be;
Jesus, my Lord I soon shall see.
Glad day, glad day!
Is it the crowning day?
I may go home today,
Glad day, glad day!
Seemeth I hear their song—
Hail to the radiant throng!
If I should go home today.
Why should I anxious be?
Glad day, glad day!
Lights appear on the shore,
Storms will affright nevermore,
For He is “at hand” today.
Faithful I’ll be today,
Glad day, glad day!
And I will freely tell
Why I should love Him so well,
For He is my all today.
