Lyics

COME, Christian brethren, ere we part,

Join every voice and every heart;

One solemn hymn to God we raise,

One final song of grateful praise.



Christians, we here may meet no more;

But there is yet a happier shore;

And there, releas'd from toil and pain,

Dear brethren, we shall meet again.
