Sorrow is O'er.

Words from "DEVOTIONAL MELODIES." By permission of FIRTH, SON, & CO.

1. What to me are earth's pleasure, and what its flowing tears? What are all the sor-rows I de-
plore? There's a song ev-er swelling, still lin-gers on my ears, "Oh, sor-row shall come a-gain no more."

CHORUS.

'Tis a song from the home of the wea - - ry: "Sor-row Sor-row is for ever o'er: Hap-py
now, ev-er hap-py on Canaan's peaceful shore. Oh, sor-row shall come a-gain no more."

2. I seek not earth-ly glo-ry, nor min-gle with the gay; I de-sire not this world's gild-ed
store: There are voices now calling from those bright realms of day, "Oh, sorrow shall come a-gain no more."

3. 'Tis a note that is wafted across the troubled wave;
'Tis a song I've heard upon the shore; [grave:
'Tis a sweet-thrilling murmur around the Christian's
"Oh, sorrow shall come again no more." -Cho.

4. 'Tis the loud-pealing anthem, the victor's holy song,
Where the conflict and the strife are o'er;
When the saved ones for ever in joyous notes prolong,
"Oh, sorrow shall come again no more." -Cho
