The Sunny Land

Verse 1

There is a land, a sunny land Whose skies are ever bright, Where evening shadows never fall; The Saviour is its light.

Chorus

If the cross we meekly bear, Then the crown we shall wear, When we dwell, among the fair, In the bright forevermore.

Verse 2

There is a clime, a peaceful clime, Beyond life’s narrow sea, Where every storm is hush’d to rest: There let our treasure be.

Verse 3

There is a home, a glorious home, A heav’nly mansion fair; And those who lov’d so fondly here Will bid us welcome there.

Verse 4

We soon shall leave these fading scenes That glide so quickly by, And join the shining host above, Where joy can never die.
