In our sorrow to cheer and sustain,
That soon with our Saviour in heaven,
We shall meet with our loved ones again.
Blessed hope ! . . . Blessed hope I . . .
We shall meet with our loved ones again !
Blessed hope ! . . . Blessed hope 1 . . .
We shall meet with our loved ones again 1
2 Blessed hope in the word God has spoken,
All our peace by that word we obtain ;
And as sure as God's word was ne'er broken,
We shall meet with our loved ones again.
3 Blessed hope ! how it shines in our sorrow,
Like the star over Bethlehem's plain,
That it may be, with Him, ere the morrow,
We shall meet with our loved ones again.
4 Blessed hope ! the bright star of the morning,
That shall herald His coming to reign ;
Oh, the glory that waits its fair dawning,
When we meet with our loved ones again.
