        E             E7          A                   E
When my lifes work is ended and I cross that swelling tide

         E                                   B
When the bright and glorious morning I shall see

        E       E7              A              A7
I shall know my redeemer when I reach the otherside

        E                 B                E
And His smile will be the first to welcome me

        B                 E
I shall know Him, I shall know Him

      F#                        B
As redeemed by His side I shall stand

        E      E7         A    A7
I shall know Him, I shall know Him

       E            B            E
By the print of the nails in His hands

        E                 E7          A                E
Oh, the soul-thrilling rapture when I view His blessed face,

        E                            B
And the luster of His kindly beaming eyes;

       E                E7                A               A7
How my full heart will praise Him for the mercy, love and grace,

        E             B              E
That prepare for me a mansion in the sky.

        B                 E
I shall know Him, I shall know Him

      F#                        B
As redeemed by His side I shall stand

        E      E7         A    A7
I shall know Him, I shall know Him

       E            B            E
By the print of the nails in His hands

             E       E7              A            E
Oh, the dear ones in glory, how they beckon me to come,

        E                        B
And our parting at the river I recall;

       E              E7             A               A7
To the sweet vales of Eden they will sing my welcome home;

      E               B                E
But I long to meet my Savior first of all.

        B                 E
I shall know Him, I shall know Him

      F#                        B
As redeemed by His side I shall stand

        E      E7         A    A7
I shall know Him, I shall know Him

       E            B            E
By the print of the nails in His hands

            E            E7          A              E
Through the gates to the city in a robe of spotless white,

        E                                B
He will lead me where no tears will ever fall;

       E            E7             A               A7
In the glad song of ages I shall mingle with delight;

      E              B                E
But I long to meet my Savior first of all.

        B                 E
I shall know Him, I shall know Him

      F#                        B
As redeemed by His side I shall stand

        E      E7         A    A7
I shall know Him, I shall know Him

       E            B            E
By the print of the nails in His hands
