Will You Miss Me?

A voice from lands across the sea

Is call­ing me from home and thee;

Tho’ part­ing fills my heart with woe

Where Je­sus sends me I must go.

O will you miss me when I’m gone?

In sor­row

weep­ing and alone?

At noon

at night

at ear­ly dawn

O will you miss me when I’m gone?

My wea­ry heart will oft­en turn

To where the glow­ing home-lights burn

And weep­ing long for you

dear one

O will you miss me when I’m gone?

When in far dist­ant lands I roam

At God’s com­mand from friends and home

Let this sweet thought a sol­ace be:

Dear loved ones miss and pray for me.

If in this world we meet no more

Some day on yon­der shin­ing shore

Where comes no part­ing

grief or pain

Dear friends

we all shall meet again.
