Beyond the Smiling and the Weeping
Beyond the smiling and the weeping,
I shall be soon;
Beyond the waking and the sleeping,
Beyond the sowing and the reaping,
I shall be soon.
Refrain
Love, rest, and home!
Sweet, sweet hope!
Lord, tarry not, but come!
Beyond the blooming and the fading,
I shall be soon.
Beyond the shining and the shading,
Beyond the hoping and the dreading,
I shall be soon.
Refrain
Beyond the rising and the setting,
I shall be soon;
Beyond the calming and the fretting,
Beyond remembering and forgetting,
I shall be soon.
Refrain
Beyond the gathering and the strowing
I shall be soon;
Beyond the ebbing and the flowing,
Beyond the coming and the going,
I shall be soon.
Refrain
Beyond the parting and the meeting,
I shall be soon;
Beyond the farewell and the greeting,
Beyond the pulse’s fever beating,
I shall be soon.
Refrain
Beyond the frost-chain and the fever,
I shall be soon;
Beyond the rock-waste and the river,
Beyond the ever and the never,
I shall be soon.
Refrain
