We love all the things of the world

1.

We love all the things of the world

They are good before us

We love to stay long in the world

Not wanting to leave them

2.

Why should we love all earthly things

When there’s one world above

There shall no sin or evil found

There is no peril there

3.

The world that exists in the high

O that its known to us

There is joy, love and charity

All these are found up there

4.

In this world, there are death around

There is no death in heav’n

Only the saints of God stay there

In the immortal world

5.

Let’s follow the path of Jesus

Which He hath giv’n to us

Unto the good and resting place

In the house of our God
