You can picture happy gatherings,
round the fireside long ago.
And you think of tearful partings,
When they left you here below.
Will the circle be unbroken?
By and by, Lord, by and by.
There's a better home a-waiting.
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
One by one their seats were emptied,
One by one they went away;
Here the circle has been broken.
Will it be complete one day?
Will the circle be unbroken?
By and by, Lord, by and by.
There's a better home a-waiting.
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
round the fireside long ago.
And you think of tearful partings,
When they left you here below.
Will the circle be unbroken?
By and by, Lord, by and by.
There's a better home a-waiting.
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
One by one their seats were emptied,
One by one they went away;
Here the circle has been broken.
Will it be complete one day?
Will the circle be unbroken?
By and by, Lord, by and by.
There's a better home a-waiting.
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
