Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.1192

First Line: Beyond the smiling and the weeping,

Beyond the smiling and the weeping,
I shall be soon ;
Beyond the waking and the sleeping,
Beyond the sowing and the reaping,
I shall be soon.
Love, rest, and home I . .
Lord, tarry not, but come.

2 Beyond the blooming and the fading,
Beyond the shining and the shading,
Beyond the hoping and the dreading,
I shall be soon.

3 Beyond the rising and the setting,
Beyond the calming and the fretting,
Beyond remembering and forgetting,
I shall be soon.

4 Beyond the frost-chain and the fever,
Beyond the rock-waste and the river,
Beyond the ever and the never,
I shall be soon.

5 Beyond the parting and the meeting,
Beyond the farewell and the greeting,
Beyond the pulse's fever-beating,

I shall be soon.
