118 Heavenly Meeting

Words: John Leland, 1790

Music: Arr. John G. McCurry, 1846

Meter: Short Meter (6,6,8,6)

The day is past and gone,
The evening shades appear;
O may we all remember well
The night of death is near.

[chorus]
O may we meet in heav’n;
In heaven alone no sorrow’s found,
And there’s no parting there.
