There is one thing I ask of the Lord
They whose course on earth is o'er
Author: John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #699 (2010) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Sacraments and Other Occasions Funerals/Commemorations Lyrics: 1 They whose course on earth is o’er,
think they of their brethren more?
They before the throne who bow,
feel they for their brethren now?
2 We by enemies distrest,
they in paradise at rest;
we the captives, they the freed —
we and they are one indeed.
3 Those whom many a land divides,
many mountains, many tides,
have they with each other part,
fellowship of heart with heart?
4 Each to each may be unknown,
wide apart their lots be thrown;
differing tongues their lips may speak,
one be strong, and one be weak:
5 yet in sacrament and prayer
each with other hath a share;
hath a share in tear and sigh,
watch and fast and litany.
6 Saints departed even thus
hold communion still with us;
still with us, beyond the veil
praising, pleading, without fail.
7 With them still our hearts we raise,
share their work and join their praise,
rendering worship, thanks, and love,
to the Trinity above. Languages: English Tune Title: VIENNA
They whose course on earth is o'er
