O How I Long to Go

Representative Text

1 Where Jesus sets the wedding feast;
O how I long to go there too!
Lord, I desire to be a guest;
O how I long to go!

Refrain:
O judgment, judgment,
The judgment day is drawing nigh;
Judgment, judgment,
O how I long to go.

2 I've bidden sin a long farewell;
O how I long to go there too!
My soul's redeemed from death and hell;
O how I long to go! [Refrain]

3 Yes, I've been tempted, I've been tried;
O how I long to go there too!
But all the world I have denied;
O how I long to go! [Refrain]

4 This world's become a hell to me;
O how I long to go there too!
I long for heaven's liberty;
O how I long to go! [Refrain]

5 God is my everlasting stay;
O how I long to go there too!
He won't desert me in that day;
O how I long to go! [Refrain]

6 Come, sinner, go along with me;
O how I long to go there too!
O what a wedding that will be!
O how I long to go! [Refrain]
