Judy Cook Parting songs (144* d) Lyr Add: HALLELUJAH^^ 20 Oct 99


The version of that Sacred Harp song that I know goes:

And let this feeble body fail
And let it faint or die
My soul shall quit this mournful vale
And soar to worlds on high

And I'll sing Hallelujah
And You'll sing Hallelujah
And We'll all sing Hallelujah
When we arrive at home.

Shall join the disembodied saints
And find it's long rest
That only bliss for which it pants
In my Redeemer's breast

cho:

Oh what is all my suffering here
If Lord, Thou find me meet
With that enraptured host t'appear
And worship at thy feet

cho:

Give joy or grief, give ease or pain
Take life or friends away
But let me find them all again
In that eternal day

cho:

I love singing the chorus especially.

Judy
