I've three little angels awaiting for me
On the beautiful banks of the crystal sea,
When my heart is yearning and throbbing with pain,
And I fain would clasp my darlings again.
I'll look away from this earthly strand,
To the beautiful banks of the "Better Land",
I'll think of the angels waiting there,
And offer to God a thoughtful prayer.

I've three little angels to welcome me
When I, too, shall stand by the crystal sea,
When the Great Reflner hath fitted me
In His own image, shall clearly see,
When in the robe of Christ's righteouness
My soul shall seek the home of the blest,
On the beautiful banks of the crystal sea,
My darlings, still waiting, shall welcome me.
