Death Is Only a Dream

Author: C. W. Ray Appears in 64 hymnals First Line: Sadly we sing, and with tremulous breath Refrain First Line: Only a dream, only a dream Lyrics: 1. Sadly we sing, and with tremulous breath, As we stand by the mystical stream, In the valley and by the dark river of death, And yet ’tis no more than a dream. Refrain Only a dream, only a dream, And glory beyond the dark stream; How peaceful the slumber, How happy the waking; For death is only a dream. 2. Why should we weep when the weary ones rest In the bosom of Jesus supreme, In the mansions of glory prepared for the blest? For death is no more than a dream. [Refrain] 3. Naught in the river the saints should appall, Tho’ it frightfully dismal may seem; In the arms of their Savior no ill can befall, They find it no more than a dream. [Refrain] 4. Over the turbid and onrushing tide Doth the light of eternity gleam; And the ransomed the darkness and storm shall outride, To wake with glad smiles from their dream. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Sadly we sing, and with tremulous breath]
