Author: Lewis Banck Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13019 First Line: What a happy meeting there will be Refrain First Line: What a meeting and a greeting Lyrics: 1 What a happy meeting there will be,
When the loved ones gone before,
Shall the portals crowd their friend to see,
Upon the golden shore.
Refrain:
What a meeting and a greeting,
What a meeting and a greeting,
Upon the golden shore!
What a meeting and a greeting,
What a meeting and a greeting,
When we meet to part no more!
2 Soon our feet will press the heav’nly strand,
When this earthly life is o’er,
Very soon will greet the heav’nly band,
Upon the golden shore. [Refrain]
3 Hark! the voice of greeting in that clime,
Hark! they sing in heav’nly lore,
The angelic hosts their praises chime,
Upon the golden shore. [Refrain]
4 With the shining hosts the loved ones stand,
Where sad parting comes no more,
Waiting there to clasp their loved one’s hand,
Upon the golden shore. [Refrain]
