With friends on earth
we meet
in gladness,
While swift the moments fly,
Yet ever comes
the thought of sadness,
That we must say “Good-bye.”
We’ll never say “Good-bye”
in heaven.
We’ll never say “Good-bye”;
In that fair land of joy and song
We’ll never say “Good-bye.”
How joyful is
the hope that lingers,
When loved ones cross death’s sea,
That we, when all earth’s
toils are ended,
With them shall ever be.
We’ll never say “Good-bye”
in heaven.
We’ll never say “Good-bye”;
In that fair land of joy and song
We’ll never say “Good-bye.”
No parting words
shall e’er be spoken
In yonder home so fair,
But songs of joy, and peace,
and gladness,
We’ll sing for ever there.
We’ll never say “Good-bye”
in heaven.
We’ll never say “Good-bye”;
In that fair land of joy and song
We’ll never say “Good-bye.”
