534. Meet Me There

1 On the happy, golden shore,
Where the faithful part no more,
When the storms of life are over,
Meet me there;
Where the night dissolves away
Into pure and perfect day,
I am going home to stay -
Meet me there.

Chorus:
Meet me there,
Meet me there,
Where the tree of life is blooming,
Meet me there;
When the storms of life are o’er,
On the happy golden shore,
Where the faithful part no more,
Meet me there.

2 Here our fondest hopes are vain,
Dearest links are rent in twain,
But in heav’n no throb of pain -
Meet me there;
By the river sparkling bright
In the city of delight,
Where our faith is lost in sight,
Meet me there. [Chorus]

3 Where the harps of angels ring,
And the blest forever sing,
In the palace of the King,
Meet me there;
Where in sweet communion blend
Jeart with heart and friend with friend,
In a world that ne’er shall end,
Meet me there. [Chorus]
