After All

1 Although our lives be filled with bliss,
With floods of joy and happiness,
There’ll be a brighter world than this,
After all, after all.

Refrain:
After all, after all,
There’ll be a brighter world than this,
After all, after all.

2 Our earthly joys shall pass away,
Just like the fleeting of a day,
But we with Christ shall live for aye,
After all, after all.

Refrain:
After all, after all,
But we with Christ shall live for aye,
After all, after all.

3 Tho’ oft in sorrow we be cast,
Trust Christ our Lord, it can not last,
For in yon clime ’twill all be past,
After all, after all.

Refrain:
After all, after all,
For in yon clime ’twill all be past,
After all, after all.

4 The darkest night shall turn to day,
And sorrow’s clouds shall pass away,
With Christ we’ll live an endless day,
After all, after all.

Refrain:
After all, after all,
With Christ we’ll live an endless day,
After all, after all.
