I shall soon be leaving this old world of sorrow

1. I shall soon be leaving this old world of sorrow,
Heading out for home;
Faith in God I’m keeping, let it be tomorrow
when I cease to roam.

Chorus :
Leaving out, soon leaving out
This earthly frame must fall;
Leaving out, soon leaving out
When Jesus, my Lord, shall call.

2. I will soon be leaving for my home in glory,
Making sure my way;
God will guide my spirit, for I’ve kept His story,
I will leave for awe.

3. I shall soon be crossing o’er death’s silent river,
Happy then I’ll be;
In that safety harbor I shall sing forever,
And my loved ones see.
