|
A love-light beams across the foam
|
Where the soul of man never dies
|
Where the soul........never dies
|
It shines to light the fires of home

Where the soul of man never dies

Where the soul........never dies.

My life will end in deathless sleep

Where the soul of man never dies
|
Where the soul........never dies
|
And everlasting joys I'll reap
|
Where the soul of man never dies

Where the soul........never dies.

I'm on my way to that fair land
|
Where the soul of man never dies
|
Where the soul........never dies
|
Where there will be no parting hand
|
Where the soul of man never dies
|
Where the soul........never dies.
