I Shall Know Him

When my life work is ended

And I cross the swelling tide

And the bright and glorious morning

I shall see

I shall know my Redeemer

When I reach that other side

And His smile will be the first

Word to welcome me

And I shall know Him

I shall know Him

By the print of the nail

In His hand

Oh, the soul's thrilling rapture

When I view His smiling face

And the luster of His kindly

Gleaming eye

How my full heart will praise Him

For His mercy, love and grace

That prepared for me a mansion

In the sky

And I shall know Him

Yes, I shall know Him

There in the heat by His side

I shall stand

Oh yes, oh, oh

And I shall know Him

I shall know Him

By the print of the nail

In His hand
