BEYOND THE SUNSET - Blanche Kerr Brock - Virgil P Brock- Beyond the sunset, oh blissful morning, When with our Saviour heav'n has begun. Earth's toiling ended oh glorious dawning; Beyond the sunset, when day is done.

Beyond The 
Sunset
Music: Blanche Kerr Brock
lyrics

Beyond the sunset, oh blissful morning,
When with our Saviour heav'n has begun.
Earth's toiling ended oh glorious dawning;
Beyond the sunset, when day is done.
.
Beyond the sunset, no clouds will gather,
No storms will threaten no fears annoy;
Oh day of gladness oh day unending,
Beyond the sunset, eternal joy
Beyond the sunset, a hand will guide me
To God the Father, whom I adore;
His glorious presence, His words of welcome,
Will be my portion on that fair shore
.
Beyond the sunset, o glad reunion,
With our dear loved ones who've gone before;
In that fair homeland we'll know no parting,
Beyond the sunset forever more.
.
This song is usually sung behind the following poem
written by Albert Kennedy Rowswell 

Should you go first and I remain
To walk the road alone,
I'll live in memory's garden, dear,
With happy days we've known
In spring I'll wait for roses red,
When fades the lilacs blue,
And in early fall when brown leaves fall,
I'll catch a glimpse of you.
.Should you go first and I remain
For battles to be fought,
Each thing you've touched along the way,
Will be a hallowed spot.
I'll hear your voice I'll see your smile,
Though blindly I may grope,
The memory of your helping hand,
Will buoy me on with hope.
.Should you go first and I remain
To finish with the scroll,
No lessening shadows shall ever creep in
To make this life seem droll.
We've known so much of happiness,
We've had our cup of joy.
And memory is one gift of God
That death cannot destroy.
.Should you go first and I remain,
One thing I'll have you do;
Walk slowly down that long lone path,
For soon I'll follow you.
I'll want to know each step you take
That I may walk the same,
For someday down that lonely road, You'll hear me call - your name.

Are you struggling with a big decision or wondering how your eternal future will play out?
Why not talk to the God of the universe and let Him work in your behalf?
He says, “I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you" (Psalm 32:8).
Ask God to show you what to do. Pray the following prayer:
“Heavenly Father,
I admit that I am a sinner and my sins have separated me from You. I now want to turn away from my past sinful life and begin a new life with You.
Please forgive me. I now receive your Son, Jesus Christ as my Savior, my Master and my Lord. I believe and confess that Jesus Christ died for my sins, was buried, and rose from the dead.
I want to receive all that Jesus Christ has provided for me as my Savior. Your Word says, ‘Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved’ (Romans 10:13).
I believe and confess that Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man comes unto the Father, but by Him.
Lord Jesus, I pray and ask You, to come into my heart and be Lord of my life. I thank You that you have given me eternal life, and according to Your Word, I am born again.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit Who is in me now. I surrender my life to You. I promise to study Your Word – the Bible.
Use me for Your glory.
In Jesus’ Name. Amen.”
