“For Ever With The Lord,”
Amen, So Let It Be;
Life From The Dead Is In That Word,
’Tis Immortality.

Here In The Body Pent,
Absent From Him I Roam,
Yet Nightly Pitch My Moving Tent
A Day’s March Nearer Home.

My Father’s House On High,
Home Of My Soul, How Near
At Times, To Faith’s Aspiring Eye,
Thy Golden Gates Appear!

Ah, Then My Spirit Faints,
To Reach The Land I Love,
The Bright Inheritance Of Saints,
Jerusalem Above.

Yet Doubts Still Intervene,
And All My Comfort Flies;
Like Noah’s Dove, I Flit Between
Rough Seas And Stormy Skies.

Anon The Clouds Depart,
The Winds And Waters Cease;
While Sweetly Over My Gladdened Heart
Expands The Bow Of Peace.
