14686. We Shall Meet Again

1 Meet again! when life is o’er
Meet again! to part no more;
How it cheers the drooping heart
When from friends we’re called to part.

Refrain:
We shall meet, yes, we shall meet
In our home so pure and bright,
Meet where songs shall never grow old,
Sweetly tuned to harps of gold.

2 Meet again! where endless joy
We shall taste without alloy;
Meet where songs shall ne’er grow old,
Sweetly tuned to harps of gold. [Refrain]

3 Meet again! how passing sweet
Friends long lost again to meet;
Careworn souls by tempest driv’n,
Oh, how sweet to meet in Heav’n. [Refrain]
