Beautiful Isle of Somewhere

Jessie Brown Pounds • English

Primary Scripture: Hebrews 11:16

Verse 1

Somewhere the sun is shining, Somewhere the songbirds dwell; Hush, then, thy sad repining, God lives, and all is well.

Chorus

Somewhere, somewhere, Beautiful isle of somewhere; Land of the true, where we live anew, Beautiful isle of somewhere.

Verse 2

Somewhere the day is longer, Somewhere the task is done; Somewhere the heart is stronger, Somewhere the guerdon won.

Chorus

Somewhere, somewhere, Beautiful isle of somewhere; Land of the true, where we live anew, Beautiful isle of somewhere.

Verse 3

Somewhere the load is lifted, Close by an open gate; Somewhere the clouds are rifted, Somewhere the angels wait.

Chorus

Somewhere, somewhere, Beautiful isle of somewhere; Land of the true, where we live anew, Beautiful isle of somewhere.
