THE ZEBULON RECORD Volume XXVII. Number 7 We, Too, Shall Live Again These words were written for the melody, “Londonderry Air,” by Bessie Farmer Davis and were sung first ten years ago during the memorial service for her eldest son, Lt. Eric Farmer Davis, who was killed in battle in the Philippine Is lands. The verses express perfectly the confidence with which she faced life and death. When comes the time that days on earth are ended And swift the soul to realms afar must go, No fear should with the last farewells be blended; No hearts need break; no bitter tears need flow. For One there is who trod the way before us; Laid down His life in more than mortal pain; Who conquered death and reigns in heaven victorious. Because He died and rose we, too, shall live again. Beyond the darkness shines the Light Eternal; Beyond the night a day that shall not cease; No pain is there, but bliss that is supernal; No strife is there, but everlasting peace. Eye hath not seen, nor hath it entered ever Into man’s heart the glories there in store; But this we know: that naught His love can sever; And that His own shall be with Him forevermore.
