LyicsLo! the seal of death is breaking,
Those who slept its sleep are waking,
Heaven opes its portals fair!
Hark, the harps of God are ringing!
Hark, the seraph's hymn is flinging
Music on immortal air.
There no more at eve declining,
Suns without a cloud are shining
O'er the land of life and love;
There the founts of life are flowing,
Flowers unknown to time are blowing,
In that radiant scene above.
There no sigh of memory swelleth,
There no tear of sorrow welleth,
Hearts will bleed or break no more;
Past is all the cold world's scorning,
Gone the night and broke the morning,
Over all the golden shore.
