Beneath our feet and o'er our head
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 188 hymnals Topics: Death anticipation of Lyrics: 1 Beneath our feet and o'er our head
Is equal warning given;
Beneath us lie the countless dead,
And far above in heaven.

And lurks in ev'ry flower;
Each season has its own disease,
Its peril ev'ry hour.

Where'er thy foot can tread,
The earth rings hollow from below,
And warns thee of her dead.
4 Turn, Christian, turn: thy soul apply
To truths which hourly tell
That they who underneath thee lie
Shall live in heaven--or hell.
Beneath our feet and o'er our head

When We Get Home
"Till He Come"!
Author: Edward H. Bickersteth Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 254 hymnals Topics: Heaven Anticipated First Line: "Till he come"! O let the words Lyrics: 1 "Till he come!" O let the words
linger on the trembling chords;
let the little while between
in their golden light be seen;
let us think how heav'n and home
lie beyond that "Till he come."
2 When the weary ones we love
enter on their rest above,
seems the earth so poor and vast,
all our life-joy overcast?
Hush, be ev'ry murmur dumb:
it is only till he come.
3 Clouds and conflicts round us press:
would we have one sorrow less?
All the sharpness of the cross,
all that tells the world is loss,
death and darkness, and the tomb,
Only whisper "Till he come."
4 See, the feast of love is spread,
drink the wine, and break the bread:
sweet memorials, till the Lord
call us round his heav'nly board;
some from earth, from glory some,
severed only till he come.

Wait till the night is o'er,
Wait till I see the morning
Break on the golden shore. [Refrain]

To keep us saved in Christ the way,
And trusting Him though billows roll. [Refrain]

And we shall see that home so dear,
From earthly cares forever free.
