No eyes with tears are wet

No shades of dark’ning night
Will shut the view from sight,
Nor e’er becloud the light,
In Summerland.

No mountain hard to climb,
Yet all is grand, sublime,
With endless summer clime,
In Summerland.

In Summerland;
For life is on the throne
In Summerland;
No mourning for the dead,
No heavy hearts, like lead,
But endless joy instead,
In Summerland. Tune Title: [The sun will never set]

=======================
Mr. F. A. Mann was the musical director of the children’s Home at Victoria Park. He possessed a find conception for music; he gave a “reading” and interpretation to everything he touched, even to a children’s hymn. He composed but little; probably his reserve in this respect was due to his high ideals and his reverence for the great masters.
For nineteen years F. A. Mann practiced the musical profession at Lowestoft. Here he was organist successively of the Parish Church of St. Margaret, and of the church at Kirkley. His power as a choir-trainer was soon discovered by other churches, including nonconformists, and by the help of deputies he managed to train three or four choirs abreast.
For fourteen years he devoted himself to training the choir of children belonging to the Children’s Home. Mr. Mann understood children; his poetic musical instinct drew forth their powers; he interested them and they needed no spur.
