Just Beyond

Mrs. M. J. Bittle • English

Primary Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 1:16-17

Verse 1

Just beyond the care and strife, Just beyond, just beyond, Rise the golden hills of life; Just beyond, just beyond. Pains and sighing soon will cease, Welcome we the sweet release;

Chorus

Welcome we the dawn of peace, Just beyond, just beyond.

Verse 2

Just beyond this weary way, Just beyond, just beyond, Riseth one unclouded day; Just beyond, just beyond, Weary souls by care oppressed, Soon you'll enter into rest,

Chorus 2

Swell the army of the blest, Just beyond, just beyond.

Verse 3

Just beyond, though seeming far, Just beyond, just beyond, Though our trials heavy are, Just beyond, just beyond. Many mansions waiting stand, Nearing now the silver strand;

Chorus 3

Soon we'll reach the better land, Just beyond, just beyond.
