Pray, brethren, pray,
The pray'r of faith availeth;

On God your spirit stay.
Chorus:
A few more days of sorrow
And the Lord will call us home,
To walk the golden streets
Of the new Jerusalem.
Sing, brethren, sing,
Rejoice with joy and gladness;
Sing, brethren, sing,
Your songs of triumph bring.
(Chorus)
Rise, brethren, rise,
Your souls by faith ascending;
Rise, brethren, rise,
Your home is in the skies.
(Chorus)
