Happy to Meet, Sorry to Part, Happy to Meet Again

Happy to meet the sparkling eye,
The sinewy hand, the joyful tongue
Happy to meet where never a sigh
Nor a cold word chills fraternal song
Happy around the altar's base!
Happy beneath the All-seeing Eye!
Telling the glories of that place,
The happier Lodge beyond the sky.

Happy to meet, sorry to part,
Happy to meet again, again
Happy to meet, sorry to part,
Happy to meet again.

Sorry to part, for who can tell,
As time goes by and changes come,
If those we have met and cherished so well,
Shall gather again in the Mason's home?
Sorry to part, we lingering stand
Sorry to part, these loiterings prove
But whisper the word along your Band:
Meeting again in the Lodge above!

Happy to meet again, again
Oh, hasten the joyful moment soon,
When, happily met, King Hiram's men
Shall Measure again the Mason's tune!
The strong may bow, the hair grow white,
Mourners may go about the street
But carol we will as we've sung to-night,
Happy again, again to meet!
