Hymnal: International Song Service #275 (1895) Lyrics: 1 Vain are all terrestrial pleasures,
Mixed with dross the purest gold;
Seek we, then, for heavenly treasures,
Treasures never waxing old.
2 Earthly joys can never please us;
Here would we renounce them all;
Seek our only rest in Jesus,
Him our Lord and Master call.
3 Faith, our languid spirits cheering,
Points to brighter worlds above,
Bids us look for His appearing,
Bids us triumph in His love.
4 Thus the Christian life adorning,
Never need we be afraid,
Should He come at night or morning,
Early dawn, or evening shade. Languages: English Tune Title: VANISHING JOYS
Vain are all terrestrial pleasures
