Last Notes Songtext
von Shaun Groves

There is a part of me
That′s only visiting
Torn from eternity
A stranger here
The awkward mingling of
The loveless and beloved
So far from things above
While I am here

So when the last notes of my soul's summer symphony
Go stealing through this old world′s cold garden gates
I will hold no fear as you close my book of hours
And the hands of heaven carry me, carry me home to stay


O death where is your sting
Your tears and your trembling
His peace is lingering even now
O grave your battle's fought
Your victory has been lost
To Christ who gave it all to take me now

So when the last notes of my soul's summer symphony
Go stealing through this old world′s cold garden gates
I will hold no fear as you close my book of hours
And the hands of heaven carry me, carry me home to stay

O grave your battle′s fought
Your victory has been lost
To Christ who gave it all to take me home
