Refrain: To be up yon­der on the heav’n­ly side, To be up yon­der on the glo­ry side, Up there, just over on the heav’n­ly side, With the Sav­ior ev­er­more abide. 2 There’s a land of hope, there’s a land of love, Over Jor­dan, that fear­ful tide; And I list and long for the an­gel song, Just ov­er on the glo­ry side. [Refrain] 3 There’s a land of rest, there’s a land of peace, Where the waters so sil­v’ry glide; And my spi­rit flies to the morn­ing skies Just ov­er on the glo­ry side.
