There's a land that is fairer than day and by faith we can see it afar
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
verse 2
We shall sing on that beautiful shore The melodious songs of the blessed;
And our spirits shall sorrow no more, Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
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
verse 3
To our wonderful father above we shall offer our tribute of praise
For the glorious gift of his love and the blessings that hallow our days
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
