THE REST THAT REMAINS.

There is a home above the skies, Where sin and sorrow never come— A home unseen by mortal eyes, The Christian's everlasting home, There is a home Where sin and sorrow never come.
Within that home a rest remains, For those who reach that land of rest; Where all shall sing immortal strains, The habitation of the blest. There is a rest Where those who live are ever blest.
No chilling blasts, nor ice, nor snow, Shall ever reach that happy shore, Nor summer noontide's scorching glow, Where friends shall meet and part no more. That happy shore Where we shall meet and part no more.
A glorious crown of righteousness Shall be the lasting, sure reward— The purchase of redeeming grace— Of all who love and serve the Lord. The sure reward Of those who love and serve the Lord.
—Sel.
