O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Lyrics
There is a calm beyond life's fitful fever,
A deep repose, an everlasting rest;
Where whiterobed angels welcome the believer
Among the blest, among the blest.
There is a Home, where all the soul's deep yearnings,
And silent pray'rs shall be at last fulfilled;
Where strife and sorrow, murm'rings and heart burnings
At last are stilled, at last are stilled.

There is a Hope, to which the Christian, clinging;
Is lifted high above life's surging wave;
Finds life in death, and fadeless flowers springing
From the dark grave, from the dark grave.
There is a Crown prepared for those who love Him;
The Christian see it in the distance shine,
Like a bright beacon glittering above him,
And whispers, "Mine!" and whispers, "Mine!"

There is a spotless Robe of Christ's own weaving;
Will you not wrap it round your sinstained soul?
Poor wand'ring child, upon thy past life grieving,
Christ makes thee whole, Christ makes thee whole!
There is a Home, a Harp, a Crown in Heaven;—
Alas! that any should Thy gift refuse!—
The awful choice of life and death is given—
Which wilt thou choose? which wilt thou choose?
