2 Onward we go, for still we hear them singing,
"Come, weary souls, for Jesus bids you come;"
And through the dark, its echoes sweetly ringing,
The music of the gospel leads us home.-Ref.
3 Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing,
The voice of Jesus sounds o'er land and sea,
And laden souls by thousands meekly stealing,

Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee.-Ref.
4 Rest comes at length: though life be long and dreary,
The day must dawn, and darksome night be past;
Faith's journeys end in welcome to the weary,

And heaven, the heart's true home, will come at last.-Ref.

5 Angels, sing on! your faithful watches keeping;

Sing us sweet fragments of the songs above;
Till morning's joy shall end the night of weeping,
And life's long shadows break in cloudless love.-Ref.

2 They stand, those halls of Zion,
All-jubilant with song,
And bright with many an angel,
And all the martyr throng:
The Prince is ever in them;

The daylight is serene;
The pastures of the blessèd

Are decked in glorious sheen. 8 There is the throne of David,And there, from care released, The song of them that triumph, The shout of them that feast;

And they, who with their Leader,
Have conquered in the fight,
For ever and for ever

Are clad in robes of white.

4 O sweet and blessèd country,
The home of God's elect!
C sweet and blessed country,
That eager hearts expect!
Jesus, in mercy bring us

To that dear land of rest;

Who art, with God the Father,

And Spirit, ever blest.
