LyicsNo, no, it is not dying to go unto our God,
This gloomy earth forsaking,
Our journey homeward taking,
Along the starry road.
No, no, it is not dying heaven's citizen to be,
A crown immortal wearing,
A rest unbroken sharing,
From care and conflict free.
No, no, it is not dying the Shepherd's voice to know;
His sheep he ever leadeth,
His peaceful flock he feedeth,
Where living pastures flow.
No, no, it is not dying to wear a heavenly crown,
Among God's people dwelling,
The glorious triumph swelling,
Of him whose sway we own.
