Then all who love Him shall Heaven-ward fly:

Together with Jesus we all shall be there,

Far from the earth, and from sorrow and care

Parents and children shall then again meet,

Sisters and brothers oh, it will be sweet!

We miss’d them on earth, to Jesus they went;

We love them as ever, their absence lament;

Soon we shall meet them, and then be content,

Would each one answer, the great and the small?

Thy face, blessed Jesus, our Saviour to see

Would you then, dear children, sing sweetly with me?

Yet all may rejoice their glad praises bring;

For Jesus still waits, He tarried that we

May trust in His name and thus ready may be,
