Lyics

HAIL, sweetest dearest tie that binds

Our glowing hearts in one!

Hail sacred hope that tunes our minds,

To harmony divine!



It is the hope the blissful hope,

Which Jesus' grace has given,

The hope when days and years are past,

We all shall meet in heaven-

We all shall meet in heaven at last,

We all shall meet in heaven-

The hope, when days and years are past,

We all shall meet in heaven.



What though the northern wintry blast

Should howl around thy cot;

What though beneath a southern sun

Be cast thy distant lot.



From Burmah's shore, from Afric's strand

From India's burning plain,

From Europe, from Columbia's land,

We hope to meet again.



No ling'ring look, no parting sigh,

Our future home shall know;

There joy shall beam from every eye,

And hope immortal grow.
