Text: | Not Made with Hands |
Author: | Ulysses Phillips |
Tune: | [I know this earthly house shall fall] |
Composer: | Ella V. Phillips |
1 I know this earthly house shall fall,
But on that golden strand
I have a bright and blissful home,
A house not made with hands.
Refrain:
I’ve a house not made with hands,
I’ve a house not made with hands,
I’ve a house not made with hands;
I’ve a house not made with hands,
Over on that golden strand,
I’ve a house not made with hands.
2 There peace and joy fore’er shall stay,
And there, so fair, there stands,
Where shines one bright eternal day,
My house not made with hands. [Refrain]
3 No pain or sorrow e’er shall come,
We’ll clasp no parting hands,
And death shall never blight that home,
My house not made with hands. [Refrain]
4 And when this earthly house shall fall
I’ll answer God’s commands,
And find my home forevermore,
A house not made with hands. [Refrain]
