There Is a Land Immortal
Author: Thomas MacKellar Hymnal: The Helper in Sacred Song #6 (1889) Lyrics: 1 There is a land immortal,
The beautiful of lands;
Beside its ancient portal
A silent sentry stands.
He only can undo it,
And open wide the door;
And mortals who pass through it
Are mortal nevermore.
2 That glorious land is Heaven,
And Death the sentry grim;
The Lord thereof has given
The opening keys to him;
And ransom’d spirits, sighing
And sorrowful for sin,
Pass through the gate in dying,
And freely enter in.
3 Though dark and drear the passage
That leadeth to the gate,
Yet grace attends the message,
To souls that watch and wait;
And at the time appointed
A messenger comes down,
And guides the Lord's anointed
From cross to glory's crown.
4 Their sighs are lost in singing;
They're blessed in their tears;
Their journey heavenward winging,
They leave on earth their fears.
Death like an angel seeming,
"We welcome thee!" they cry;
Their face with glory gleaming,
'Tis life for them to die. Tune Title: [There is a land immortal]
