There's a land that is fairer than day

And by faith we can see it afar

For the father waits over the way

To prepare us a dwelling place there

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



We shall sing on that beautiful shore

The melodious songs of the blest

And our spirit shall sorrow no more

Not a sign for the blessing of rest



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



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



In the sweet by and by

In the sweet by and by, ohh
