LyicsWe shall meet no more to part;
Cease thy sorrows, mourning heart!
Weary days will soon depart--
Then we may rest for ever!
When the work of life is done,
When the victor's crown is won,
Then, immortal life begun,
We no more shall sever.
We shall meet, no more to part:
Cease thy sorrows, mourning heart!
Weary days will soon depart--
Then we may rest for ever!
In the home of peace and bliss,
In the world where Jesus is,
When we bid adieu to this,
Then we may love for ever.
Purified from every stain,
Through the Lamb that once was slain,
Brethren, we shall meet again,
And be parted never!
