Author: F. J. Crosby Hymnal: Sacred Songs No. 1 #95 (1896) First Line: No sorrow there in yonder clime Refrain First Line: O perfect rest, O calm repose Lyrics: 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] Topics: Funeral; Heaven Scripture: Isaiah 35:10 Tune Title: [No sorrow there in yonder clime]
