‘Twill Not Be Long, Our Journey Here;
Each Broken Sigh And Falling Tear
Will Soon Be Gone, And All Will Be
A Cloudless Sky, A Waveless Sea.
Roll On, Dark Stream,
We Dread Not Thy Foam;
The Pilgrim Is Longing For Home, Sweet Home.
‘Twill Not Be Long; The Yearning Heart
May Feel Its Every Hope Depart,
And Grief Be Mingled With Its Song;
We’ll Meet Again; ‘Twill Not Be Long.
Though Sad We Mark The Closing Eye,
Of Those We Loved In Days Gone By,
Yet Sweet In Death Their Latest Song
We’ll Meet Again; ‘Twill Not Be Long.
These Checkered Wilds, With Thorns Overspreads,
Through Which Our Way So Oft Is Led
This March Of Time, With Truth So Strong,
Will End In Bliss; ‘Twill Not Be Long.
