Composer: | F. E. Belden |
1 Low bend the willows
Over life’s dark human tide,
Swift roll the billows
To the ocean wide,
Ev’ry loved voice calling,
Tells the parting hour is nigh,
Ev’ry sear leaf falling,
Speaks the sad goodby.
Refrain:
Meet me, will you meet me?
“Whosoever will may come.”
Greet me, will you greet me
Where the fadeless flowers bloom?
2 Here tempests blowing,
Strew our blossoms, torn and dead,
Here sunsets glowing,
Mock the tears we shed;
Springtime’s fairest flowers
Soonest fade to dust again,
Autumn’s ripest hours
Have their frost of pain. [Refrain]
3 There love immortal,
Free from earth shall joyful sing
Passing the portals
With her Savior King;
Where the night falls never,
Love alone the crown shall wear,
Hid in Christ forever
We shall enter there. [Refrain]
