Representative Text

1 No sorrow there in yonder clime,
Beyond the troubled waves of time;
No dreary nights nor weeping eyes,
No aching hearts, nor broken ties.

Refrain:
O perfect rest, O calm repose,
Where life's clear stream in beauty flows!
And we can sing, without a care,
No sorrow there, no sorrow there.

2 Ah, who would dwell forever here,
Away from those we hold so dear—
Away from Him whose wondrous love
Prepares for us a home above? [Refrain]

3 A little while our watch to keep,
A little while to wake and sleep,
To bear the cross, endure the pain—
And then with Christ forever reign. [Refrain]
