Author: T. H. Hymnal: Northfield Hymnal #23 (1904) First Line: Beyond the silent stars of night Lyrics: 1 Beyond the silent stars of night,
There shines a land so fair;
More glorious than the orbs of light,
I’d fain be resting there.
Refrain:
Beyond the silent stars of night,
Into the far away
There is a home of joy and light,
A land of perfect day.
2 Beyond the deep etherial dome,
Our waiting hearts expect
To dwell in that eternal home,
The home of God’s elect. [Refrain]
3 And though on earth we meet no more,
While years of time shall roll;
We’ll meet upon a happier shore,
The homeland of the soul. [Refrain]
4 Then wait we for our blessed King,
He will not tarry long;
Soon, soon our happy hearts shall sing,
The glad triumphant song. [Refrain] Topics: Heaven and Homeland Tune Title: [Beyond the silent stars of night]
