Text: | Beyond the smiling and the weeping |
Tune: | BEYOND THE SMILING AND THE WEEPING |
Composer: | W. A. Tarbutton, by per |
1 Beyond the smiling and the weeping,
I shall be soon;
Beyond the waking and the sleeping,
Beyond the sowing and the reaping,
I shall be soon.
Refrain:
Love, rest and home! sweet home!
Lord, tarry not, but come.
2 Beyond the blooming and the fading,
I shall be soon;
Beyond the shining and the shading,
Beyond the hoping and the dreading,
I shall be soon. [Refrain]
3 Beyond the parting and the meeting,
I shall be soon;
Beyond the farewell and the greeting,
Beyond the pulse's fever beating,
I shall be soon. [Refrain]
