Gathering Home Within The Veil

Author: Phebe Spurlock Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Time, like a stream, is gliding by Refrain First Line: We’re gathering, we’re gathering Lyrics: 1 Time, like a stream, is gliding by; We’re on its shore today; A moment more and we may pass From mortal sight away. Refrain: We’re gathering, we’re gathering, On life’s celestial shore; We soon shall meet beyond the stream, Shall meet to part no more. 2 Thus one by one our friends have passed; Through pearly gates they glide, Where gathering hosts of loved ones meet Far o’er the river tide. [Refrain] 3 This land of rest is hid from view, Though gentle airs, so calm, Oft stealing from that viewless shore, Bring us their breath of balm. [Refrain] 4 We’re gathering home within the veil, Its heav’nly joys to share, What glorious greetings will be ours, To meet our loved ones there. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Time, like a stream, is gliding by] Text Sources: The Golden Rule by Solomon W. Straub (Cincinnati: John Church, 1872)
