The Gospel Awakening ‎#74

74. Yonder

1. No shadows yonder!
All light and song!
Each day I wonder,
And say how long
Shall time me sunder
From that dear throng?

Refrain:
No shadow yonder!
No parting yonder!
In my home yonder,
Bo't by the Lamb.

2. No weeping yonder!
All fled away!
While here I wander,
Each weary day,
Sighing, I ponder
My long, long stay. [Refrain]

3. No parting yonder!
Time and space ne'er
Shall again sunder,
Hearts blended there;
Dearer and fonder
Hands clasp for aye. [Refrain]
