O hap­py ones, that sweet­ly sing,
In yon­der world so fair;
Your foot­prints on the sands of time,
Were left to guide us there.

Refrain

We’ll fol­low on, still look­ing up,
Beyond the eth­er blue,
Where, by and by, thro’ grace di­vine,
We’ll meet and sing with you.

We’ll sing of Him, our bless­èd Lord,
Who laid His glo­ry down;
Who bore our sins upon the cross,
That we might wear a crown.

Refrain

We fol­low on with trust­ing hearts,
For o’er life’s trou­bled way,
The same pro­tect­ing hand is ours,
That led you, day by day.
