Article XII. "THE LIFE EVERLASTING."
--
words: Samuel J. Stone, 1866
music: Luke Brodine & Edward Moy, 2010

lyrics

The world is sad with hopes that die,
With joys that gleam and then go by,
And dim the mortal eyes that gaze
On setting suns of parting days.

Chorus:
Better the hope, the joy, the light
For spiritual heart and sight!
Better the hope, the joy, the light
For those whose life is hid on high

Shall never part and never die.
They never part! that saintly band,
Heirs of the heavenly, holy land ;
Whom God the Spirit hath made one
With GOD the Father and the Son.

Chorus

They never die! the deathly strife
But ushers them to glorious life:
From their last enemy they gain
Their birth to bliss, their end to pain.

Chorus

Bridge:
Jesus, teach our hearts to soar
And grasp those things which are before,
Father, teach …
Spirit, teach …
That after death our life may be
Immortality with Thee!
