English Yorùbá
Meter P.M (7.7.6.6.6.6.7) Orin Omode
  1. Here we suffer grief and pain,
    Here we meet to part again;
    In heaven we part no more.
    Oh, that will be joyful!
    Joyful, joyful, joyful!
    Oh, that will be joyful!
    When we meet to part no more.

  2. All who love the Lord below,
    When they die to heaven will go,
    And join with saints above.
    Oh, that will be joyful, etc.

  3. Little children will be there,
    Who have sought the Lord by prayer
    From every Sunday School.
    Oh, that will be joyful, etc

  4. Teachers, too, will meet above,
    Pastors, parents, whom we love,
    Shall meet to part no more.
    Oh, that will be joyful, etc

  5. Oh, how happy we shall be!
    For our Saviour we shall see
    Exalted on His throne.
    Oh, that will be joyful, etc

  6. There we all shall sing for joy,
    And eternity employ
    In praising Christ the Lord.
    Oh, that will be joyful!
    Joyful, joyful, joyful!
    Oh, that will be joyful!
    When we meet to part no more. Amen.
