 * let our bodies part,
 * To different climes repair;

Inseparably joined in heart
 * The friends of Jesus are:
 * Jesus the Corner Stone,
 * Did first our souls unite;

And still He holds, and keeps us one,
 * Who walk with Him in white.


 * Then let us still proceed
 * In Jesu's work below;

And, following our triumphant Head,
 * To farther conquests go;
 * The vineyard of the Lord
 * Before His labourers lies;

And lo! we see the vast reward
 * That waits us in the skies.


 * O let our heart and mind
 * Continually ascend,

That haven of repose to find,
 * Where all our labours end.
 * When all our grief is o’er,
 * Our suffering, and our pain:

Who meet on that eternal shore
 * Shall never part again.


 * O happy, happy place,
 * Where saints and angels meet!

There we shall see each other's face,
 * And all our brethren greet.
