38. Beautiful Land Beyond

1 In that beautiful land where the Saviour's adored,
Where the saints and the angels in sweetest accord,
Sing the praises of Jesus, their King and their Lord,
In that beautiful land beyond.

Chorus:
There's a welcome, a welcome for me,
There my dear Saviour and King I shall see.
O let me haste on my way
To that beautiful land beyond.

2 In that beautiful land where the streets are of gold,
Where the Saviour is Shepherd to all in the fold,
There is nought known of sorrow, nor hunger, nor cold,
In that beautiful land beyond. [Chorus]

3 In that beautiful land thee is perfected love,
Where in peace and in joy all in unison move,
O the rapture so blest! when I'm called up above
To that beautiful land beyond. [Chorus]

4 When 'tis o'er, all the strife of this vale here below,
And I cross the deep stream where the dark waters flow,
O the joy! O the rapture! my Saviour I'll know
In that beautiful land beyond. [Chorus]
