Our Missing Treasures

Fanny Crosby • English

Primary Scripture: John 14:2

Verse 1

Cease, my heart, these earthly clingings, Life is but a fleeting day; One by one its links are broken, One by one they pass away.

Chorus

Far beyond this world of changes, Far beyond this world of care, We shall find our missing treasures, In our Father’s mansion fair.

Verse 2

Faithful friends around us gather, Faithful friends our footsteps guide; But how many more are waiting, Waiting on the other side.

Chorus

Far beyond this world of changes, Far beyond this world of care, We shall find our missing treasures, In our Father’s mansion fair.

Verse 3

Call not back the dear departed, Anchored safe where storms are o’er; On the border land we left them, Soon to meet, and part no more.

Chorus

Far beyond this world of changes, Far beyond this world of care, We shall find our missing treasures, In our Father’s mansion fair.
