Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Northfield Hymnal #61 (1904) First Line: No shadows yonder Lyrics: 1 No shadows yonder!
All light and song!
Each day I wonder,
And say, How long
Shall time me sunder
From that dear throng?
Shall time me sunder
From that dear throng?
2 No weeping yonder!
All fled away!
While here I wander,
Each weary day,
I sigh and ponder
My long, long stay;
I sigh and ponder
My long, long stay.
3 No parting yonder!
No space or time
Hearts e’er shall sunder,
In that fair clime,
Dearer and fonder—
Friendship sublime,
Dearer and fonder—
Friendship sublime.
4 None wanting yonder!
Bought by the Lamb,
All gathered under
The shelt’ring palm,
Loud as night's thunder
Swells the glad psalm;
Loud as night's thunder
Swells the glad psalm. Topics: Heaven and Homeland Tune Title: [No shadows yonder, all light and song]
No Shadows Yonder!
