Thread Name: YOUR Favorite Hymns Part 2
Subject: ADD: Stars In My Crown
My favourite is a baptist hymn called "Stars in my crown" (no. 787, Baptist Sankey hymnal):
STARS IN MY CROWN
I am thinking today of that beautiful land
I shall reach when the sun goes down
When through wonderful grace by my Saviour I stand
Will there be any stars in my crown?
Chorus
Will there be any stars in my crown
When at evening the sun goes down
When I wake with the blest in the mansions of rest
Will there be any stars in my crown?
In the strength of the Lord let me labour and pray,
Shall I watch as a winner of souls
That bright stars may be mine in the glorious day
When His praise like the sea billow rolls?
Chorus
O what joy will there be when His face I behold
And with gems at His feet to lay down
It would sweeten my bliss in the City of gold
Should there be any stars in my crown?
Chorus
