|
There's a land that is fairer than day, |
|
And by faith we can see it afar; |
|
For the Father waits over the way |
|
To prepare us a dwelling place there. |
|
In the sweet by and by, |
|
We shall meet on that beautiful shore; |
|
In the sweet by and by, |
|
We shall meet on that beautiful shore. |
|
We shall sing on that beautiful shore |
|
The melodious songs of the blessed; |
|
And our spirits shall sorrow no more, |
|
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest. |
|
In the sweet by and by, |
|
We shall meet on that beautiful shore; |
|
In the sweet by and by, |
|
We shall meet on that beautiful shore. |
|
To our bountiful Father above, |
|
We will offer our tribute of praise |
|
For the glorious gift of His love |
|
And the blessings that hallow our days. |
|
In the sweet by and by, |
|
We shall meet on that beautiful shore; |
|
In the sweet by and by, |
|
We shall meet on that beautiful shore. |
