[Verse 1]
Thereâs a land that is fairer than day
and by faith we shall see it afar,
for the Father waits over the way,
to prepare us a dwelling place there.
[Chorus]
In the sweet by and by
we shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by
we shall meet on that beautiful shore.
[Verse 2]
We shall sing on that beautiful shore
the melodious songs of the blessed,
and our spirits shall sorrow no more,
not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
[Chorus]
In the sweet by and by
we shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by
we shall meet on that beautiful shore.
[Verse 3]
To our bountiful Father above
we shall offer our tribute of praise,
for the glorious gift of His love,
and the blessings that hallow our days.
[Chorus]
In the sweet by and by
we shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by
we shall meet on that beautiful shore.
