No Thorn on the Rose

1 You have heard of the sweet Rose of Sharon
And the far away place where it grows;
And tho’ life here on earth may be thorny,
There’s in heav’n not a thorn on the rose.

Refrain:
Not even one thorn on the rose,
No tear in that crystal stream flows;
Beyond the bright portals of glory
Not even one thorn on the rose.

2 Oft our pathway is darkened by sorrow
And we long for that life free from woes;
But we know on that glorious morrow
There’s not even one thorn on the rose. [Refrain]

3 We are pierced by the thorns in our pathway,
But our trials and testings He knows,
For He wore here on earth the harsh thorn crown;
But above there’s no thorn on the rose! [Refrain]
