A few more marchings weary,
Then we'll gather home!
A few more stromclouds dreary,
Then we'll gather home!
A few more days the cross to bear,
And then with Christ a crown to wear;
A few more marchings weary,
Then we'll gather home!
A few more nights of weeping,
Then we'll gather home!
A few more days of reaping,
Then we'll gather home!
A few more nights to watch and pray,
And then will come that better day,
A few more martchings weary,
Then we'll all be home!
A few more sweet links broken,
Then we'll gather home!
A few more kind words spoken,
Then we'll gather home!
A few more partings on this strand,
And then away to Glory land:
A few more martchings weary,
Then we'll gather home!

No. 512 in Sacred Songs and Solos
2Timothy 2:3 Thou therefore endure
hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that piano coversreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life;
that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
