There are loved ones in the glory,
|
Whose dear forms you often miss;
|
When you close your earthly story,
|
Will you join them in their bliss?
|
|
Refrain: Will the circle be unbroken
|
By and by, by and by!
|
In a better home waiting
|
In the sky, in the sky?
|
|
In the joyous days of childhood,
|
Oft they told of wondrous love,
|
Pointed to the dying Saviour
|
Now they dwell with Him above.
|
Refrain:
|
|
You can picture happy gatherings
|
Round the fireside long ago,
|
And you think of tearful partings,
|
When they left you here below.
|
Refrain:
|
|
One by one their seats were emptied,
|
One by one they went away;
|
Here the circle has been broken.
|
Will it be complete one day?
|
Refrain:
|
|

Will the circle be unbroken
