Lyics

No, no, it is not dying

To go unto our God,

This gloomy homeward taking,

Along the starry road.



No, no, it is not dying

Heav'n's citizen to be,

A crown immortal wearing,

And rest unbroken sharing,

From care and conflict free.



No, no, it is not dying

To wear a heav'nly crown,

Among God's people dwelling,

The glorious triumph swelling,

Of Him whose sway we own.



O no, this is not dying;

Thou Saviour of mankind!

There, streams of love are flowing,

No hindrance ever knowing;

Here, only drops we find.
