Verse 1
After a few more years
After a few more times
We shall be gathered with all those
Who slept in the tomb.

Chorus
Jesus my Lord and God
Help me prepare for Thee,
Wash Thou me in Thy precious blood
And take my sins away.

Verse 2
After a few more days
Spent in this wicked world,
We'll reach the land where there's no sun
A land of fadeless day.

Chorus
Jesus my Lord and God
Help me prepare for Thee,
Wash Thou me in Thy precious blood
And take my sins away.

Verse 3
After a few more storms
On this wave beaten shore,
We'll leave the stormy seas and reach
A shore that's ever calm.

Chorus
Jesus my Lord and God
Help me prepare for Thee,
Wash Thou me in Thy precious blood
And take my sins away.

Verse 4
After a few more troubles,
After partings are done,
After our sad and bitter tears,
There will be no more tears.

Verse 5
A few more days of rest
Is all we have on earth
We shall get to a place of rest
Where it shall never end.

Chorus
Jesus my Lord and God
Help me prepare for Thee,
Wash Thou me in Thy precious blood
And take my sins away.

Verse 6
A few more days to wait
And He, Christ shall return
The One who died that we may live
And reign with Him for aye.
