Author: H. A. César Malan; Robinson P. Dunn Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4566 Meter: 7.6.7.7.6 Lyrics: 1. No, no, it is not dying
To go unto our God;
This gloomy earth forsaking,
Our journey homeward taking
Along the starry road.
2. No, no, it is not dying
Heaven’s citizen to be;
A crown immortal wearing,
And rest unbroken sharing,
From care and conflict free.
3. No, no it is not dying
To hear this gracious word,
Receive a Father’s blessing,
Forevermore possessing
The favor of thy Lord.
4. No, no it is not dying
The Shepherd’s voice to know:
His sheep He ever leadeth,
His peaceful flock He feedeth,
Where living pastures grow.
5. No, no it is not dying
To wear a lordly crown;
Among God’s people dwelling,
The glorious triumph swelling
Of Him whose sway we own. Languages: English Tune Title: WAKEFIELD
No, No, It Is Not Dying
