A HOME IN GLORY.

By Editor

[The following is one of a number of rare hymns which a brother has furnished us, which were familiar to the Advent people under the First Message. We cheerfully give them a place in the REVIEW, both on account of the spirit they contain, and the pleasing remembrances they produce of former days.]
THERE is a rest for saints prepared, A home for them in glory; And all who wait to greet the Lord, Shall reign with him in glory. CHORUS: O glory, O glory, There is room enough in the new earth, For all a home in glory.
When Jesus did ascend on high, Upon a cloud of glory, Two shining angels standing by, Announced the joyful story. CHORUS: O glory, &c.
This Jesus who was taken up, To intercede in glory, In manner like shall come again, To reign with saints in glory. CHORUS: O glory, &c.
The signs which he did kindly give, Preceding him in glory, Have been fulfilled this age we live; And soon he'll come in glory. CHORUS: O glory, &c.
His faithful servants heard the word, That soon he'd come in glory; While evil servants say the Lord; Delays to come in glory. CHORUS: O glory, &c.
Tho' he may seem to us to wait; Yet soon he'll come in glory, For we believe there's no mistake, O hallelujah, glory. CHORUS: O glory, glory, There's room enough in the new earth, For all the saints in glory.
