LXIV. MEET IN HEAVEN.
Ah! shall we meet at last in heav'n,
As here on earth we meet;
And there, redeem'd, with sins forgiv'n,
Each other kindly greet?
As here on earth we meet;
And there, redeem'd, with sins forgiv'n,
Each other kindly greet?
What! meet in heav'n, where Jesus reigns,
In that resplendent sphere?
It will repay for all the pains
And cares we suffer'd here.
In that resplendent sphere?
It will repay for all the pains
And cares we suffer'd here.
We'll meet in heav'n if faithful, when
These troublous times are o'er;
Oh! yes, we'll meet in heav'n again,
As we've met heretofore.
These troublous times are o'er;
Oh! yes, we'll meet in heav'n again,
As we've met heretofore.
164
It stands engrav'd in solid brass,
And to His people giv'n,
A promise, that if true at last
They all shall meet in heav'n.
And to His people giv'n,
A promise, that if true at last
They all shall meet in heav'n.
“Unto the swift is not the race,”
Nor battle to the strong;
But he who treads the path of grace,
The journey all along.
Nor battle to the strong;
But he who treads the path of grace,
The journey all along.
To him the prize is freely giv'n,
Who struggles to the end;
He shall enjoy a rest in heav'n,
A rest with Christ his friend.
Who struggles to the end;
He shall enjoy a rest in heav'n,
A rest with Christ his friend.
