Additional verses:



A love-light beams across the foam

Where the soul of man never dies

Where the soul never dies

It shines to light the fires of home

Where the soul of man never dies

Where the soul never dies.



My life will end in deathless sleep

Where the soul of man never dies

Where the soul never dies

And everlasting joys I'll reap

Where the soul of man never dies

Where the soul never dies.



I'm on my way to that fair land

Where the soul of man never dies

Where the soul never dies

Where there will be no parting hand

Where the soul of man never dies

Where the soul never dies.
