LyicsThat sweetest, dearest tie that binds
Our glowing hearts in one --
That sacred hope that binds 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.
CHORUS
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
Shall howl around my cot,
What though beneath a southern sun
Be cast my distant lot,
Yet we shall have 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, &c.
From Birmah's shore, from Afric's strand,
From India's burning plain,
From Europe, from Columbia's land,
We hope to meet again;
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, &c.
No lingering look, no parting sigh
Our future meeting knows,
There friendship beams in every eye,
And hope, O blissful hope,
Which Jesus' grace has given,
The hope, when days and years are past,
We all shall meet in heaven.
We all shall, &c.
