The Beautiful Land

Verse 1

There’s a beautiful land far away, Where no trouble or storms ever come, Where the straying shall nevermore stray, And the homeless shall find a sweet home.

Chorus

Oh, that beautiful world far away, far away, Where no sorrow or death ever come; Oh, when shall I see and rejoice in its day, And be safe with my Savior at home.

Verse 2

In that beautiful world of repose, Where the weary eternally rest, Where the voice of oppressors and foes Never reaches the home of the blest.

Verse 3

Neither sorrow nor sighing are there, Nor are hearts ever burden’d with fears; There none utter the wait of despair, Nor are eyes ever blinded with tears.

Verse 4

‘Tis a world of perennial day, Unobscured by the shadows of night, Where no cloud ever covers a ray From the face of the Father of light.

Verse 5

‘Tis the home of our fathers and God, And our glorified Savior is there; And those ransom’d from earth by his blood In his joy and his glory shall share.
