Our Mother
Author: Lizzie F. Baker Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9229 Meter: 9.8.9.8.9.8 D First Line: The last night of watching is over Refrain First Line: Safe in the bright upper land Lyrics: 1 The last night of watching is over;
The last words of love have been said;
And safe on the bosom of Jesus,
Our mother has pillowed her head.
Enfolded in arms everlasting,
Her weakness and pains are all past;
The pearl gates of God’s upper city
In triumph she’s entered at last.
Refrain:
Safe in the bright upper land,
Safe thro’ eternity’s years,
Safe with the glorified band,
After earth’s trials and tears.
2 We mourn thro’ the bright days of summer,
’Mid scenes where no more she will tread;
And weep when the white snows of winter
Fall soft o’er the grave of our dead;
But when the home-group of our hearth-stone
Shall kneel at the calm hour of prayer,
The beautiful soul of our mother
Shall meet with her darling ones there. [Refrain]
3 We thank Thee, our Father, in Heaven,
That after the earth-life of tears,
There cometh a day without ending,
The morn of eternity’s years;
We thank Thee that, perfect thro’ suff’ring,
Thy loved and Thy ransomed shall stand,
And sing the new song all together,
With Thee in the bright upper land. [Refrain]
4 Our eyes on the cross, dear Redeemer,
Our feet in the safe narrow way,
We’ll think of the great weight of glory,
And carry the cross of today;
Thy strength in our weakness made perfect,
Bear us as on wings to the sky,
Where hopes that we cherish ne’er fail us,
And those that we love cannot die. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: CROYDON
