Eternity! Where?

“Eternity! Where?” It floats in the air;
Amid calm or or silence it ever is there!
The question s solemn, “Eternity! Where?”
The question so solemn, “Eternity! Where?”


“Eternity! Where?” Oh! Eternity! Where?
With redeemed ones in glory, or lost in despair?
‘Tis one or the other, “Eternity! Where?”
‘Tis one or the other, “Eternity! Where?”


Eternity! Where?” Oh! How can you share,
The world’s giddy pleasures, or heedlessly dare.
Do aught till you settle, “Eternity! Where?”
Do aught till you settle, “Eternity! Where?”


“Eternity! Where?” Oh! Friend, have a care;
Soon God will no longer His judgment forebear;
This day may decide your “Eternity! Where?”
This day may decide your “Eternity where?”


“Eternity! Where?” Oh! Eternity! Where?
Friend, sleep not, nor take in the world any share,
Till you answer this question, “Eternity! Where?”
Till you answer this question, “Eternity! Where?”
