LyicsShe hath gone to the Christian's land of rest,
To heaven, forever to reign,
With holy and glorified spirits blest,
She conquered through Him that was slain,
She conquered thro' Him that was slain.
She hath gone to the land of spirits bright,
Where pleasures uncessingly roll,
Where Christ, the Redeemer, is the light,
And God is the joy of the soul,
And God is the joy of the soul.
She hath gone to a house not madde with hands,
Secure and eternal above,
To join with the bright angelic bands
In strains of redeeming love,
In strains of redeeming love.
It is not without hope we weep and mourn
For one so beloved and dear;
We are bruised and bereaved, yet not forlorn,
Though we never shall meet her here,
Though we never shall meet her here.
