310. Beyond the Sunset

1 Beyond the sunset’s radiant glow,
There is a brighter world, I know,
Where golden glories ever shine,
Beyond the thought of day’s decline.

Chorus:
Beyond the sunset’s radiant glow,
There is a brighter world I know;
Beyond the sunset, I may spend
Delightful days that never end.
Beyond the sunset’s radiant glow,
There is a brighter world I know;
Beyond the sunset, I may spend
Delightful days that never end.

2 Beyond the sunset’s purple rim,
Beyond the twilight deep and dim,
Where clouds and darkness never come,
My soul shall find its heavenly home. [Chorus]

3 Beyond the desert dark and drear,
The golden city will appear,
And morning’s lovely beams arise
Upon my mansion in the skies. [Chorus]

4 Those golden portals ever shine
Beyond the reach of day's decline,
And Jesus bids my soul prepare
To gain a happy entrance there. [Chorus]
