Life Hereafter



There must be life hereafter
There must be higher love
There must be time together
There must be good above

There must be life hereafter
There must be honest joy
There must be valid measure
There must be real McCoy

There must be life hereafter
There must be perfect rest
There must be simple leisure
There must be no request

There must be life hereafter
There must be utter store
There must be ideal treasure
There must be care galore

There must be life hereafter
There must be total peace
There must be bliss forever
There must be full release

There must be life hereafter
There must be divine right
There must be basic pleasure
There must be net delight
