How Beautiful to be with God
How beautiful to be with God,
When earth is fading like a dream,
And from the mist-encircled shore
To launch upon the unknown stream.
No doubt, no fear, no anxious care,
But, comforted by staff and rod,
In the faith-brightened hour of death,
How beautiful to be with God.
Beyond the partings and the pains,
Beyond the sighings and the tears,
Oh, beautiful to be with God
Through all the endless, blessed years,
To see His face, to hear His voice,
To know Him better day by day,
And love Him as the flowers love light,
And serve Him as immortals may.
