Just A Few More Miles

 
 




Just A Few More Miles
By George Thurlow


It will not be much longer.
Soon His face you'll see.
Carry on just a little longer;
Reward is waiting thee.

All you have ever hoped for
Is about to come to past.
Only a few more miles to go
And you'll be home at last.

My friend do not grow weary
And tired of doing right.
Victory is yours for the taking,
Achieved through His great might.

Brother, please stay faithful;
Don't faint along the way.
Christ will give you strengthening,
And see you through another day.

Sister, please hang in there
And stay upon the track.
For the trumpet is about to sound
And the clouds are rolling back.

All heaven waits with bated breath.
The moment is almost here.
Lift up your head towards heaven,
For you're redemption's near.

There will be a celebration:
The Marriage Supper of the Lamb,
Where the saints are gathered
With the Great I AM.

Oh my friends don't miss it!
Remain faithful unto Him.
For it's only a few miles to go
To be safely gathered in.
