0 they tell me ofa ho1ne far beyond the skies, 0 they tell me ofa home far away,
0 they tell me ofa home, where no storm clouds rise, 0 they tell me ofan unclouded day.
0 they tell me ofa home where my friends have gone, 0 they tell me ofa land far away,
Where the tree of life in eternal bloom Sheds its fragrance through the unclouded day.
0 they tell me that He smiles on His children there, And His smiles drives their sorrows all away; And they tell me that no tears ever come again In that lovely land of unclouded day.
J. K.Alwood
"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death,
neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are
passed away."
