For Ever and Ever

Listen from:
Eternity! Eternity!
How wonderful it seems to me!
For every day that here I spend,
I know will surely have an end;
And every night must pass away,
When sunrise lights another day.
Thus weeks and months are rolling on,
This passing year will soon be gone;
And long or short as life may be,
‘Tis nothing to eternity!
Eternity! Eternity!
How very wondrous it will be!
Then think, where would you like to spend
Time that will never, never end?
O! come to Jesus while you may,
He calls you to His arms today;
Then, when your life on earth is o’er,
Counted by months and years no more,
He’ll take you to His home of peace,
Where sin and pain and sorrow cease;
A home of light and joy and love,
All earthly pleasures far above.
O! happy, happy, then to be
With Him through all eternity!
