Lyrics
Only a dream, only a dream
All glory, beyond the dark s
How peaceful the slumber, how happy the waking
For death is only a dream
Mother, was dark, but the light came at last
And flooded my soul with its gleam
True, that this life is like clouds overcast
For death is only a dr
Only a dream, only a dream
All glory, beyond the dark
How peaceful the slumber, how happy the waking
For death is only a dream
Mother, I've often felt, during this life
"How shall I cross the dark s?"
For Jesus has given me gracious relief
For death is only a dream
Only a dream, only a dream
All glory, beyond the dark sea
How peaceful the slumber, how happy the waking
For death is only a dream
Mother, I've seen through the veil, clearly cross
To the banks of that beautiful stream
Where saints are repaired for earthly loss
For death is only a dream
Only a d--, only a dream
All glory, beyond the dark sea
How peaceful the slumber, how happy the waking
For death is only a dream
Mother, tell Father I've seen that bright host
That God gave his son to redeem
I know he will faithfully stand at his post
For death is only a dream
Only a --, only
