Where my soul will eternally rest.

353. ALL YE PEOPLES
MED/TAD, OH, PUEBLOS TODDS
·HnZ.7TA[[ll\TGTPs··103:1s-sLEEP-···
All ye Peoples, let us ponder,
All the Earth, let us consider;
From the dust of earth created,
And return to dust when withered;
Thus hath saith the Lord of all.
CHORUS
But he who sets his faith in Christ,
Shall be written in the book of God;
And rejoice in all eternity,
When we reach the gates of Zion.
A new hymn we shall sing in heaven,
'Neath the throne of the Almighty King;
And the Lord will guide my steps to Him,
And we'll reach the gates of Zion.
2
Like the wild bloom in springtime,
That will flourish one fine morning;
But as night time is approaching,
Its beauty will surely wither;
And will soon be turned to nothing.
3
Our days are shortly numbered,
Like a dream they're swiftly fading;
Our lives are a short story,
Bittersweet and full of trials;
Riddled by incessant heartaches.
