UP A Long Eventful Life Its Course Has Run

Transcript
A long eventful life its course has run
The labour, trial and trouble are done.
This is the end of all life's restless tide,
The universal epitaph "He Died"
Forgotten here, another life's begun
A race that for the saved is never run
Peace, rest and joy to his belov'd Christ gives
And ransomed ones in heaven shout "He lives"
C Varley
The labour, trial and trouble are done.
This is the end of all life's restless tide,
The universal epitaph "He Died"
Forgotten here, another life's begun
A race that for the saved is never run
Peace, rest and joy to his belov'd Christ gives
And ransomed ones in heaven shout "He lives"
