'Twere vain the ocean-depths to sound, Or pierce to either pole. 2 The world can never give The bliss for which we sigh; 'Tis not the whole of life to live, Nor all of death to die. 3 Beyond this vale of tears, There is a life above, Unmeasured by the flight of years, And all that life is love. 4 There is a death, whose pang Outlasts the fleeting breath; Oh, what eternal horrors hang Around the second death! 5 Lord God of truth and grace, Teach us that death to shun, Lest we be banished from Thy face, For evermore undone. 6 Here would we end our quest: Alone are found in Thee, The life of perfect love, the rest Of immortality. Amen. Used With Tune: [Oh, where shall rest be found]
