Beyond the Silent Night

1 There is beyond the silent night
An everlasting day;
‘Tis there we’ll join the “saints in light”
When we are called away.

Refrain:
Beyond the silent night,
We’ll meet the saints in light,
And walk with them in white,
Where all is pure and bright,
Beyond the silent night,
Beyond the silent night.

2 There is a fair and happy land
For those who walk upright,
‘Tis there, ere long, we all shall stand,
Beyond the silent night. [Refrain]

3 The grave is not our final goal;
But all is pure and bright,
Where we shall rest while ages roll,
Beyond the silent night. [Refrain]

4 Oft waves of sorrow here arise;
But what a glorious sight
Looms up before immortal eyes—
Beyond the silent night. [Refrain]

5 We all have friends just over there,
In Jesus’ blood washed white,
Who walk the streets without a care,
Beyond the silent night. [Refrain]

6 When we have fought thro’ storm and strife,
As valiant soldiers fight,
‘Tis then we’ll reach the “tree of life,”
Beyond the silent night. [Refrain]
