My Christian Friends In Bonds Of Love,
Whose Hearts The Sweetest Union Prove;
Your Friendship’s Like The Strongest Band,
Yet We Must Take The Parting Hand.
Your Presence Sweet, Our Union Dear,
What Joys We Feel Together Here!
And When I See That We Must Part,
You Draw Like Chords Around My Heart.
How Sweet The Hours Have Passed Away,
Since We Have Met To Sing And Pray;
How Loath Are We To Leave The Place
Where Jesus Shows His Smiling Face!
O Could I Stay With Friends So Kind,
How Would It Cheer My Fainting Mind!
But Pilgrims In A Foreign Land,
We Oft Must Take The Parting Hand.
My Christian Friends, Both Old And Young,
I Trust You Will In Christ Go On;
Press On, And Soon You’ll Win The Prize
A Crown Of Glory In The Skies.
A Few More Days, Or Years At Most,
And We Shall Reach Fair Canaan’s Coast:
When, In That Holy, Happy Land,
We’ll Take No More The Parting Hand.
O Blessed Day! O Glorious Hope!
My Soul Rejoices At The Thought,
When, In That Holy, Happy Land,
We’ll Take No More The Parting Hand.
