It is not death to die

Author: George W. Bethune; Caesar Malan Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #561 (1899) Topics: Immortality Lyrics: 1 It is not death to die, To leave this weary road, And 'midst the brotherhood on high To be at home with God. 2 It is not death to close The eye long dimmed by tears, And wake in glorious repose To spend eternal years. 3 It is not death to bear The wrench that sets us free From dungeon chain, to breathe the air Of boundless liberty. 4 It is not death to fling Aside this sinful dust, And rise, on strong, exulting wing, To live among the just. 5 Jesus, Thou Prince of life, Thy chosen cannot die! Like Thee, they conquer in the strife, To reign with Thee on high. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: GREENWOOD

What sinners value, I resign

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #564 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Immortality of the soul Lyrics: 1 What sinners value, I resign: Lord! 'tis enough that Thou art mine! I shall behold Thy blissful face, And stand complete in righteousness. 2 This life's a dream, an empty show; But the bright world to which I go Hath joys substantial and sincere; When shall I wake and find me there? 3 O glorious hour! O blest abode! I shall be near and like my God; And flesh and sin no more control The sacred pleasures of the soul. 4 My flesh shall slumber in the ground Till the last trumpet's joyful sound; Then burst the chains with sweet surprise, And in my Saviour's image rise.

Through sorrow's night and danger's path

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #565 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Immortality of the soul Lyrics: 1 Though sorrow's night and danger's path, Amid the deep'ning gloom, We soldiers of an injured King Are marching to the tomb. 2 There, when the turmoil is no more, And all our powers decay, Our cold remains in solitude Shall sleep the years away. 3 Our labors done, securely laid In this our last retreat, Unheeded o'er our silent dust The storms of life shall beat. 4 Yet not thus lifeless, thus inane, The vital spark shall lie, For o'er life's wreck that spark shall rise To seek its kindred sky. 5 These ashes too, this little dust, Our Father's care shall keep, Till the last angel rise, and break The long and dreary sleep. 6 Then love's soft dew o'er every eye Shall shed its mildest rays, And the long silent dust shall burst With shouts of endless praise.

Friend after friend departs

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #574 (1899) Topics: Immortality Lyrics: 1 Friend after friend departs: Who hath not lost a friend? There is no union here of hearts, That finds not here an end: Were this frail world our only rest, Living or dying, none were blest. 2 Beyond the flight of time, Beyond the reign of death, There surely is some blessèd clime, Where life is not a breath, Nor life's affections, transient fire, Whose sparks fly upward to expire. 3 There is a world above, Where parting is unknown; A whole eternity of love Formed for the good alone; And faith beholds the dying here Translated to that glorious sphere. 4 Thus star by star declines, Till all are passed away; As morning high and higher shines To pure and perfect day; Nor sink those stars in empty night, But hide themselves in heaven's own light. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: DWIGHT

When shall we meet again?

Author: Samuel F. Smith; Alaric A. Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #598 (1899) Topics: Immortality Lyrics: 1 When shall we meet again?-- Meet ne'er to sever? When will peace wreathe her chain Round us forever? Our hearts will ne'er repose Safe from each blast that blows, In this dark vale of woes— Never--no, never! 2 When shall love freely flow, Pure as life's river? When shall sweet friendship glow Changeless forever? Where joys celestial thrill, Where bliss each heart shall fill, And fears of parting chill, Never--no, never! 3 Up to that world of light, Take us, dear Saviour; May we all there unite, Happy forever: Where kindred spirits dwell, There may our music swell, And time our joys dispel, Never--no, never! 4 Soon shall we meet again-- Meet ne'er to sever; Soon will peace wreathe her chain Round us forever; Our hearts will then repose Secure from worldly woes; Our songs of praise shall close Never--no, never! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: UNITY

Brief life is here our portion

Author: John M. Neale; Bernard of Cluny Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #607 (1899) Topics: Immortality Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion; Brief sorrow, short-lived care; The life that knows no ending, The tearless life, is there; Oh, happy retribution! Short toil, eternal rest; For mortals, and for sinners, A mansion with the blest! 2 There grief is turned to pleasure,-- Such pleasure as below No human voice can utter, No human heart can know; And after fleshly weakness, And after this world's night, And after storm and whirlwind, Are calm and joy and light. 3 For thee, O dear, dear country! Mine eyes their vigils keep; For very love, beholding Thy happy name they weep: The mention of thy glory Is unction to the breast, And medicine in sickness, And love, and life, and rest. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S, BOLTON
