Beyond the smiling
and the weeping,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Beyond the waking
and the sleeping,
Beyond the sowing
and the reaping,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Love, rest, and home!
|:Sweet :| home!
|: Lord, tarry not :| but come!
Beyond the blooming
and the fading,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Beyond the shining
and the shading,
Beyond the hoping
and the dreading,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Love, rest, and home!
|:Sweet :| home!
|: Lord, tarry not :| but come!
Beyond the parting
and the meeting,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Beyond the farewell
and the greeting,
Beyond the pulse’s
fever beating,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Love, rest, and home!
|:Sweet :| home!
|: Lord, tarry not :| but come!
Beyond the frost-chain
and the fever,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Beyond the rock-waste
and the river,
Beyond the “ever”
and the “never,”
|:I shall be soon! :|
Love, rest, and home!
|:Sweet :| home!
|: Lord, tarry not :| but come!
Beyond the parting
and the meeting,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Beyond the farewell
and the greeting,
Beyond the pulse’s
fever-beating,
|:I shall be soon! :|
Love, rest, and home!
|:Sweet :| home!
|: Lord, tarry not :| but come!
