LyicsBeyond the smiling and the weeping, I shall be soon;
Beyond the waking and the sleeping,
Beyond the sowing and the reaping, I shall be soon.
Love, rest, and home, sweet home! Lord, tarry not, but come!
Beyond the blooming and the fading, I shall be soon;
Beyond the shining and the shading,
Beyond the hoping and the dreading, I shall be soon.
Lord, tarry not, but come.
Beyond the rising and the setting, I shall be soon;
Beyond the calming and the fretting,
Beyond remembering and forgetting, I shall be soon.
Love, rest, and home, sweet home! Lord, tarry not, but come!
Beyond the parting and the meeting, I shall be soon;
Beyond the farewell and the greeting,
Beyond the pulse's fever beating, I shall be soon.
Love, rest, and home, sweet home! Lord, tarry not, but come!
Beyond the frost-chain and the fever, I shall be soon;
Beyond the rock-waste and the river,
Beyond the ever and the never, I shall be soon;
Lord, tarry not, but come.
