abigail miller - the sun still rises lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the sun still rises in the east
it sets still in the west
but, we now are bowed down in grief
for you’ve gone on to rest

what music from god’s hall heard you?
what bade you leave the womb?
and slip up through the starry blue
by the path of your own tomb?

‘twas not the reapers cruel scythe
no claw on death’s grim hand
but a call to god, to peace, to life
a voice across the strand
through heaven’s gate you dance with mirth
and through a glowing hall
on splendor never seen on earth
you gazed in joy and awe

[chorus]
and there you heard the angels harps
and there the saints did sing
and there above all sparkling stars
you knelt before the king
and there the glad hosannas rang
rejoicing ’round the throne
loud songs of praise the cherubs sang
for a child of god come home

[verse 2]
the sun still rises in the east
it sets still in the west
but you’ve gone on to heaven’s feast
to live with god at rest

although we’re left to weep a day
and mourn in this world of men
heaven rings with your shouts of play
and we shall meet again

[chorus]

(and there we’ll hear the angels harps
and with the saints we’ll sing
and there above all sparkling stars
we’ll kneel before the king.)

and there the glad hosannas ring
rejoicing ’round the throne
loud songs of praise the cherubs sing
for a child of god come home
and there the glad hosannas ring
rejoicing ’round the throne
loud songs of praise the cherubs sing
for a child of god come home

our hearts are waiting for the day
when we meet again at home
