Coming Nearer

Author: Mrs. M. E. M. Sangster Hymnal: Songs of Summerland #2 (1943) First Line: Its coming, coming nearer Refrain First Line: Oh, yes! It's coming nearer, nearer Lyrics: 1 It’s coming, coming nearer, The lovely land unseen; Its shore are growing clearer, Though mists lie dark between; We catch its beams of glory, We hear its bursts of song, We’re raptur’d with its story, For it our spirits long. Refrain: Oh, yes! it’s coming nearer, nearer, nearer; Oh, yes! it’s coming nearer, The lovely land unseen. 2 The balmy winds are bringing Its odors on their breath; Our ship of life is swinging To the port where is no death; Where none are heavy hearted, Where all are glad and free, Where friends are never parted, And their lov’d ones see. [Refrain] 3 It’s coming, coming nearer, We’re homeward bound at last; Its shores are growing clearer, We soon shall anchor fast; We’ll dwell with them for ever, Who brought us o’er the tide, And not a foe shall sever Our souls from their dear side. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Its coming, coming nearer]
