Speak often to each other

P. M.

1

Speak often to each other,To cheer the fainting mind;And often be your voicesIn pure devotion joined.Though trials may await you,The crown before you lies;Take courage, brother pilgrims,And soon you 'll win the prize.

2

Ye shall be mine, says Jesus,In that auspicious dayWhen I make up my jewels,Released from cumbrous clay.He 'll polish and refine youFrom worthless dross and tin,And to his heavenly kingdomWill bid you enter in.

3

On that important morning,When bursting thunders sound,And nimble lightnings wavingShall wing the gloom profound;Lift up your heads rejoicing,And clap your joyful hands;Lo! you 're redeemed foreverFrom death's corrupted bands!
