I have heard of a land on the far away strand
'Tis a beautiful home of the soul Built by Jesus on high, there we never shall die 'Tis a land where we never grow old Never grow old, never grow old In a land where we'll never grow old Never grow old, never grow old In a land where we'll never grow old In that beautiful home where we'll never more roam We shall be in the sweet by and by Happy praise to the king thru eternity sing 'Tis a land where we never shall die When our work here is done and the life crown is won And out troubles and trials are o'er All our sorrows will end and our voices will blend With the loved ones who've gone on before |

I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through this wearisome land And I've got a home in that yonder city, good Lord And it's not (good Lordy it's not) not made by hand I got a mother, a sister and a brother Who have gone to that sweet home And I am determined to go and see them, good Lord Over on (good Lordy over on) that distant shore As I go down to that river Jordan Just to bathe my weary soul If I could touch but just the hem of His garment, good Lord I believe (good Lordy I believe) that it would make me whole Now when I'm dead, laying in my coffin All of my friends all gather round They can say that he's just laying there sleeping, good Lord Sweet peace (Lordy sweet peace) his soul is found |

When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound and time shall be no more
And the morning breaks eternal bright and fair When the saved diverse shall gather over on the other shore And the roll is called up yonder I'll be there When the roll is called up yonder when the roll is called up yonder When the roll is called up yonder when the roll is called up yonder I'll be there [ horns ] Let us lay before the Master from the dawn till setting sun Let us talk of all his wonderous love and care And when all of life is over and our work on earth is done When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there When the roll is called up yonder... (When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there) |

Soon we'll come to the end of life's journey
And perhaps we'll never meet anymore 'Til we gather in heaven's bright city Far away on that beautiful shore If we never meet again this side of heaven As we struggle through this world and its strife There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven By the river of life Where the charming roses bloom forever And where separation come no more If we never meet again this side of heaven I will meet you on that beautiful shore Oh so often we are parted with sorrow And action often quietens our pain But we never shall sorrow in heaven God be with you till we meet again |

Some glad morning when this life is over,
I'll fly away. To a home on God's celestial shore, I'll fly away. I'll fly away, O Glory, I'll fly away. (In the morning) When I die, Hallelujah, bye and bye, I'll fly away. When the shadows of this life are gone, I'll fly away. Like a bird from prison bars has flown I'll fly away. I'll fly away, O Glory, I'll fly away. (In the morning) When I die, Hallelujah, bye and bye, I'll fly away. Just a few more weary days and then, I'll fly away. To a land where joy shall never end, I'll fly away. I'll fly away, O Glory, I'll fly away. (In the morning) When I die, Hallelujah, bye and bye, I'll fly away. |

To Canaan's land I'm on my way
Where the soul (of man) never dies My darkest night will turn to day Where the soul (of man) never dies (lead) No sad farewells No tear dimmed eyes Where all is love And the soul never dies (tenor) Dear friends there'll be no sad farewells There'll be no tear-dimmed eyes Where all is peace and joy and love And the soul of man never dies The rose is blooming there for me Where the soul (of man) never dies And I will spend eternity Where the soul (of man) never dies The love light beams across the foam Where the soul (of man) never dies It shines and lights the way to home Where the soul (of man) never dies My life will end in deathless sleep Where the soul (of man) never dies And everlasting joys I'll reap Where the soul (of man) never dies I'm on my way to that fair land Where the soul (of man) never dies Where there will be no parting hand Where the soul (of man) never dies |

Brightly beams our father's mercy from his lighthouse evermore
But to us he gives the keeping of the lights along the shore (Let the lower lights be burning send a beam across the wave Some poor fainting struggling seaman) you may rescue you may save Dark the night of sin has settled loud the angry billows roar Eager eyes are watching longing for the lights along the shore (Let the lower lights be burning... |

There's a land that is fairer than day and by faith we can see it apart
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 [ piano ] We shall sing on that beautiful shore for the melodious songs of the blessed And our spirits shall sorrow no more not a sight for the blessing of rest In the sweet by and by... To a bountiful father above we shall offer our tribute of praise For the glory as gift of his love and the blessing that howlered days In the sweet by and by... In the sweet by and by... |

On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye To Canaan's fair and happy land, Where my possessions lie. I am bound for the promised land, I am bound for the promised land; Oh who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land. O'er all those wide extended plains Shines one eternal day; There God the Son forever reigns, And scatters night away. I am bound for the promised land, I am bound for the promised land; Oh who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land. No chilling winds or poisonous breath Can reach that healthful shore; Sickness and sorrow, pain and death, Are felt and feared no more. I am bound for the promised land, I am bound for the promised land; Oh who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land. When I shall reach that happy place, I'll be forever blessed, For I shall see my Father's face, And in His bosom rest. |

I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on the roses And the voice I hear, falling on my ear The Son of God discloses And he walks with me And he talks with me And he tells me I am His own And the joy we share as we tarry there None other has ever known He speaks and the sound of His voice Is so sweet the birds hush their singing And the melody that He gave to me Within my heart is ringing And he walks with me And he talks with me And he tells me I am His own And the joy we share as we tarry there None other has ever known I'd stay in the garden with Him 'Tho the night around me be falling But He bids me go; through the voice of woe His voice to me is calling And He walks with me And He talks with me And He tells me I am His own And the joy we share as we tarry there None other has ever known |

Just as I am without one plea but that Thy blood was shed for me
And that Thou bid'st me come to Thee oh lamb of God I come I come [ strings ] Just as I am and waiting not to rid my soul of one dark blot To Thee who's blood can cleanse each spot oh lamb of God I come I come Just as I am Lord Thou tossed about with many a conflict and many a doubt Fightings fears within and without oh lamb of God I come I come Just as I am Thou wilt receive will dwell come pardon cleanse relieve Because Thy promise I believe oh lamb of God I come I come |
