“Eternal Things,” Friend, Jan. 1993, 12–13
Eternal Things
1. These are the things I dream of in sleep when the day is through.
These are the things I hope for, having faith that they are true.
These are the things I pray for, when in faith I kneel to Thee;
and these are the things I’ll gain if I live worthily.
May my heart be upon these eternal things.
2. Parent and child, we can all be a fam’ly eternally,
Living together in a place of perfect harmony,
There in the presence of Jesus, with friends and family.
What greater blessings could I seek than these eternal things?
Oh may my heart be ever on eternal things.
