The Word "Good-bye"

Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: SLP41897 #234 (1897) First Line: A dismal spectre, dark and tall Refrain First Line: O happy land, O blessed land Lyrics: 1 A dismal spectre, dark and tall, Here throws its shadow over all; But in that blessed land on high Is never heard the word, good-bye. Refrain: O happy land, O blessed land, Where no one gives the parting hand; In that fair land above the sky, Is never heard the word, good-bye. 2 It enters ev’ry home on earth, It enters halls of joy and mirth; The laugh is hushed, we breathe a sigh, As we are forced to say, good-bye. [Refrain] 3 But when we meet in heav’n above, We’ll never leave the friends we love; Together there, while ages fly, We’ll never hear the word, good-bye. [Refrain] 4 Tho’ now we give the parting hand, We’ll meet up yonder in that land, Where we will see no weeping eye, Caused by these words, good-bye, good-bye. [Refrain] Tune Title: [A dismal spectre, dark and tall]

Oh, Don't You Hear Him Knocking?

He’s knocking at the door to come in; He wants an invitation to cross your threshold o’er, Then Jesus will save you from all sin. 2 How often when in sickness, your body racked with pain, This knocking resounded in your ears; How often in the nighttime the knock would come again, So loud it would fill your soul with fears. [Refrain] 3 While standing by the casket of some departed friend, With sorrow your heart was sick and sore; What caused that train of thinking of how your life would end? That hand was then knocking at the door. [Refrain] 4 Why will you keep him knocking? why won’t you let him in? He’ll fill your pathway with delight; That hand so torn and bleeding will wash away your sin, Oh, welcome the Savior in tonight. [Refrain] Tune Title: [A hand all bruised and bleeding is knocking at the door]
