"Far Better"

(For Miss Martha)

Far Better!

Let the anthem ring as we say farewell

to this one we loved, and love.

With Christ forevermore, now

removed from this shadowed world,

to live with Him above.

 

Far better, far better, far better.

 

 

Far Better!

We pray, we sing, we tell

our hope for the one we loved, and love.

In glory now and evermore

joyous in that shining world

of Father, Son, and Holy Dove.

 

Far better, far better, far better.

 

 

Far Better!

We shed our tears, but faith compels

glad joy for the one we loved, and love.

Enraptured now and evermore

to shine in His joyous world,

a spirit freed, and free to live with Him above.

 

Far better, far better, far better…“To depart and to be with Christ is far better.”

(Philippians 1:23)
