To life there is no end
If your life you implant
In the heart of a friend;
Pleasures fade as eternity calls,
But friendship like a star in heaven,
Grows brighter as darkness falls

As darkness falls, look above!
Lift your hands and give your heart
To Jesus Christ: The Star of Love;
He will bless your soul, extend His Hand,
Be your friend in truth and love;
In Glorious Beullah Land.
