Tune: | [On the happy, golden shore] |
Composer: | Wm. J. Kirkpatrick |
1 On the happy, golden shore,
Where the faithful part no more,
When the storms of life are o'er,
Meet me there;
Where the night dissolves away
Into pure and perfect day,
I am going home to stay,
Meet me there.
Chorus:
Meet me there, Meet me there,
Where the tree of life is blooming,
Meet me there;
When the storms of life are o’er,
On the happy, golden shore,
Where the faithful part no more,
Meet me there.
2 Here our fondest hopes are vain,
Dearest links are rent in twain;
But in heav’n no throb of pain,
Meet me there;
By the river sparkling bright,
In the city of delight,
Where our faith is lost in sight,
Meet me there. [Chorus]
3 Where the harps of angels ring,
And the blest forever sing,
In the palace of the King,
Meet me there;
Where in sweet communion blend,
Heart with heart, and friend with friend,
In a world that ne’er shall end,
Meet me there. [Chorus]
