IN heaven there will he no parting, no pain to bear; No care-worn brow, no sigh, no silvery hair;
No death to snatch our loved ones from our side, No angry waves, no sea, no treacherous tide. In heaven
there'll be no thirst, no cry for bread; No soul who knows not where to lay his head; No one to feel the
winter's chilling blast, For there the piercing storms will all be past. In heaven there'll be no toil without
repay; No building for a brief, ephemeral day; For all the joys that prophets old have told 'Twill take the
endless ages to unfold.
In heaven there'll be no weary pilgrim band; No seekers for a better, fairer land; For all who reach
that blissful, happy shore Will never cry nor sigh, nor wish for more.
