Words: Eliza E. Hewitt / Music: John R. Sweeney Circa: 1897
[G]I am thinking today of that [C]beautiful land
I shall [D7]reach when the sun goeth [G]down;
When through wonderful grace, by my [C]Savior I stand,
Will there [D7]be any stars in my [G]crown?
REFRAIN:
[G]Will there be any stars, any stars in my crown,
When at evening the sun goeth [D7]down?
When I [G]wake with the blest, In those [C]mansions of rest,
Will there [G]be any [D7]stars in my [G]crown?
In the strength of the Lord, let me labor and pray,
Let me watch as a winner of souls
That bright stars may be mine in the glorious day,
When His praise like the sea billows roll.
Oh what joy will it be, when His face I behold,
Living gems at His feet to lay own;
It would sweeten my bliss in the city of gold,
Should there be any stars in my crown.
