161. Parting Hymn

1 How pleasant thus to dwell below,
In fellowship of love!
And tho we part, 'tis bliss to know
That we shall meet above.
That we shall meet above,
That we shall meet above,
And tho' we part, 'tis bliss to know
That we shall meet again.

2 Yes, happy tho't! when we are free
From earthly grief and pain,
In heav'n we shall each other see,
And never part again.
And never part again,
And never part again;
In heav'n we shall each other see,
And never part again.

3 Then let us each in strength divine,
Still walk in wisdom's ways;
That we with those we love' may join
In never lasting praise.
In never ending praise,
In never ending praise,
That we, with those we love, may join
In never ending praise.
