Beyond
Author: Flora Kirkland Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Beyond earth's latest sunset Refrain First Line: "No night there!" Lyrics: 1 Beyond earth’s latest sunset
There lies a county bright,
Where fadeless day is glowing,
That never sinks to night.
Refrain:
“No night there!”
No sorrow and no fears;
“No night there!”
No pain, no death, no tears;
“No night there!”
Where care hath passed away;
“No night there!”
But endless, fadeless day.
2 Beyond earth’s final heart-ache
There lies a land of peace,
Where sorrow never cometh,
Where pain and trouble cease. [Refrain]
3 Beyond earth’s latest suff’ring
There lies a country fair,
Where dwellers are immortal;
No death can enter there. [Refrain]
4 O land beyond the sunset,
Where time shall be no more,
Some bright, ecstatic morning
We’ll sight thy peaceful shore! [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Beyond earth's latest sunset]
