FATHER BIRMINGHAM

Father has reached that happy land,
All undefiled by sin;
He stands within the casper walls.
And hears the angels sing
He's met the Master face to face
Before the great white throne,
And found that rest, that perfect rest
That He will give His own.
He'll kneel down at His sacred feet
And clasp that nail-torn hand,
And tell the story pure and sweet
That's known in every land;
He'll strike his harp with loud acclaim
And make the wellkin ring,
VIII glorify his risen Lord
And hail Him heavens own king.
We want to wear that star-gemmod
crown,
That robe of spotless white;
We want to bear the victors palm
And praise HIN with our might;
Lord grant that this may be our fate.
Whatever else we miss,
That we may enter heavens gate
And revel in its bliss.
So, when our life work here is done.
And we are called on high,
May we be waiting for the call.
And answer, Here am l."
And, when upon our brow there rests
The crown that we have won.
Wen dwell forever with the blest
And hear the glad well done"
