Lyics

THERE is a realm, so bright so fair--

A happy home where seraphs dwell--

A land of peace--beyond compare!

Its loveliness no tongue can tell.



It is a home of joy and peace;

Where pain and parting are unknown--

Where happiness shall never cease,

And sin and sorrow never come.



Prove faithful, then, a few more days,

Finish the course thou hast begun,

Even thy Saviour ran the race,

And everlasting glory won.
