Thy glories gild earth’s darkest night;
Thy tranquil shore, we, too, shall see,
When day shall break and shadows flee.

There rests no shadow, falls no stain;
There those who meet shall part no more,
And those long parted meet again. [Refrain]

With varying blues of shade and light;

To dissipate the gloom of night. [Refrain]

Across the calm, serene abode.
The wand’rer there a home may find
Within the paradise of God. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a land mine eye hath seen] (Towner)
