Never Part 294

Tune: Himes’s Millennial Harp, 1842; Arranged by John Carwell, 1850
Alto: Mrs. Anna L. (Cooper) Blackshear, 1902
Lyrics: Edmund Jones, 1787

Come, humble sinner, in whose breast
A thousand thoughts revolve,
Come, with your guilt and fear oppressed,
And make this last resolve.

Chorus:

We’re marching through Immanuel’s ground
And soon shall hear the trumpet sound,
And then all shall with Jesus reign,
And never, never part again.
What! Never part again?
No, never part again.
And soon shall hear the trumpet sound,
And never, never part again.
