But our spirits never part;
Love, undying love so precious,
Holds you sacred in our heart.
Refrain:
God be with you, O my brethren,
Till our work on earth is o’er;
Soon in sacred bliss we’ll gather,
Where the ransomed part no more.
2 Grace hath robed your souls in beauty,
Molded you in love divine;
May your lives reflect her virtue
To the glorious end of time. [Refrain]
3 As we meet in sweet devotion,
Blest in song and owned in prayer,
Comes the thought, in deep emotion,
“Who will meet me over there?” [Refrain]
4 O our God, in sov’reign mercy
Guide us o’er life’s tossing sea;
At Thy throne we’ll meet to praise Thee,
Endless as eternity. [Refrain] Topics: Anticipation Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 Tune Title: [Here we meet and part in Jesus]
Who Will Meet Me There?
