Author: Knowles Shaw Hymnal: The Morning Star #52 (1877) First Line: I dreamed of the land of the pure and bright Refrain First Line: O! that beautiful dream Lyrics: 1 I dreamed of the land of the pure and bright,
The city of God, the saint's delight,
And the saints of all ages and children were there,
That city of God and that home to share.
Chorus:
O! that beautiful dream;
O! that beautiful dream;
Shall I the saints, and those children see,
Or, shall it be only a dream?
2 I dreamed that the trials of life were o'er,
And the saints were walking the golden shore;
Where they ate of the fruit of life's evergreen tree,
O! beautiful, beautiful dream to me. [Chorus]
3 I dreamed that I saw them in robes of white;
With crowns on their brow of golden light;
I looked as they wandered life's river along,
I listened and heard a most beautiful song. [Chorus] Tune Title: [I dreamed of the land of the pure and bright]
