10359. Here We Suffer Grief And Pain

1 Here we suffer grief and pain,
Here we meet to part again,
In Heav’n we part no more.

Refrain:
Oh! that will be joyful!
Joyful, joyful, joyful!
Oh! that will be joyful!
When we meet to part no more.

2 All who love the Lord below,
When they die to Heav’n will go,
And sing with saints above. [Refrain]

3 Little children will be there,
Who have sought the Lord by prayer,
From every Sunday school. [Refrain]

4 Teachers, too, shall meet above,
And our pastors, whom we love,
Shall meet to part no more. [Refrain]

5 O! how happy we shall be!
For our Savior we shall see,
Exalted on His throne! [Refrain]

6 There we all shall sing with joy,
And eternity employ
In praising Christ the Lord. [Refrain]
