Weep not for me, a Father's love
In mercy call'd me from above,
To rest with Him.
Weep not for me, but still upraise
Your hearts in never-ending praise,
Addrest to Him.—A.
Onward Christian, onward look!
Far beyond the dismal grave;
Written in God's holy Book,
Souls which Jesus died to save.
Upward, Christian, upward climb,
Live not for a world like this;
Look for homes of love sublime,
Realms of everlasting bliss.—A.
"I heard the voice of Jesus say,
Behold! I freely give
The living water,—thirsty one,
Stoop down, and drink, and live.
I came to Jesus, and I drank
Of that life-giving stream,
My thirst was quench'd, my soul reviv'd,
And now I live in Him."
"Adieu, belovèd friend, adieu!
On earth we only meet to part;
Yet to the Christian's brighter view
Still we are one, still near in heart
