Lyrics
Meet today and part tomorrow,
Smiles of joy and tears of sorrow,
Such is human life,
But in gentle resignation,
And with sweet anticipation,
Of a higher, holier station,
We endure the strife,
We endure the strife.
Meet today in social union,
Spend the hour in sweet communion
As in seasons past,
Christian friendship is a treasure,
Pure in nature, rich in measure,
Filling us with heav'nly pleasure,
While the moments last,
While the moments last.
If tomorrow tears are starting,
At the tender hour of parting,
Brief will be the pain;
Time on rapid wings is flying,
Christians on their Lord relying,
Present, absent, living, dying,
Soon will meet again,
Soon will meet again.
Smiles of joy and tears of sorrow,
Such is human life,
But in gentle resignation,
And with sweet anticipation,
Of a higher, holier station,
We endure the strife,
We endure the strife.
Meet today in social union,
Spend the hour in sweet communion
As in seasons past,
Christian friendship is a treasure,
Pure in nature, rich in measure,
Filling us with heav'nly pleasure,
While the moments last,
While the moments last.
If tomorrow tears are starting,
At the tender hour of parting,
Brief will be the pain;
Time on rapid wings is flying,
Christians on their Lord relying,
Present, absent, living, dying,
Soon will meet again,
Soon will meet again.
