The Little Sower for Sabbath Schools ‎#63

63. Meeting in Heaven

1 The years are passing swiftly;
Each one is full of graves,
But many weary spirits
The love of Jesus saves.

Refrain:
Meet me in Heaven, meet me in Heaven,
We shall be happy there;
Meet me in Heaven, meet me in Heaven,
The Saviour's love to share.

2 A day shall dawn in beauty
On ev'ry waiting heart,
When those who love for Jesus,
Shall meet no more to part. [Refrain]

3 Then shall we know no sorrow;
Ours shall be perfect rest;
Ours shall be bliss unfailing,--
A life among the blest. [Refrain]

4 Across the gentle sunlight
No shadows ever fall;
There sounds no wail of anguish,
'Tis joy and peace to all. [Refrain]
