Will You be There?

Author: M. C. Wilson Hymnal: Redemption Songs #167 (1937) First Line: We know there's a bright and a glorious home Lyrics: 1 We know there's a bright and a glorious home, Away in the heavens high, Where all the redeem'd shall with Jesus dwell, Will you be there, and I? Will you be there and I? Will you be there and I? Where all the redeem'd shall with Jesus dwell, Will you be there and I? 2 In robes of white o'er the streets of gold, Beneath a cloudless sky, They'll walk in the light of their Father's love, Will you be there, and I? Will you be there and I? Will you be there and I? They'll walk in the light of their Father's love, Will you be there and I? 3 If we find the loving Saviour now, And follow Him faithfully, When He gathers His children in that bright home, Will you be there, and I? Will you be there and I? When He gathers His children in that bright home, Will you be there and I? 4 If we are shelter'd by the Cross, And through the blood brought nigh; Our utmost gain we'll count but loss, Since you'll be there, and I. Since you'll be there, and I, Since you'll be there, and I; Our utmost gain we'll count but loss, Since you'll be there, and I.

Will You Be There, And I?

Author: Margaret Chalmers Hood Wilson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11345 First Line: We know there’s a bright and a glorious home Lyrics: 1 We know there’s a bright and a glorious home, Away in the heavens high, Where all the redeemed shall with Jesus dwell; Will you be there, and I? Will you be there, and I? 2 In robes of white, over streets of gold, Beneath a cloudless sky, They walk in the light of their Father’s love; Will you be there, and I? Will you be there, and I? 3 From every kingdom of earth they come, To join the triumphal cry Of "Worthy the Lamb that once was slain!" Will you be there, and I? Will you be there, and I? 4 If we take the loving Savior now, And follow Him faithfully, When He gathers His children in that bright home, Then you’ll be there, and I! Then you’ll be there, and I!

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon Composer of "[We know there's a bright and a glorious home]" in Redemption Songs In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
