  Christ will Wipe. IF traveling through this vale of tears, We saw no better world than this; If looking on through endless years We caught no ray of Heavenly bliss. Where could we go, to comfort find, Or what could then our spirits cheer; Still groping on in darkness, blind With sin and sorrow, everywhere. But, oh! our destiny is not sealed In bitter anguish, death and gloom; For God, has in His word revealed A better world, beyond the tomb. This thought, will give us joy and peace, While plodding on, in toils and cares, Knowing well we’ll have a sweet release; Then goodbye sorrow, goodbye pain, Goodbye to all our doubts and fears, For He, who died and rose again Will smile and wipe away our tears. Let storms arise, and billows roll, We’ll battle on, our three-score years— This thought’s an anchor to our soul, That Christ will wipe away our tears. So glad, our destiny is not sealed In bitter anguish, death and gloom— For God has, in His word revealed A better world, beyond the tomb. decoration |
