| Text: | In Yonder Skies |
| Author: | Thos. R. Sweatmon |
| Tune: | [In yonder skies there is a place] |
| Composer: | M. W. Matthews |
1 In yonder skies there is a place,
where all may find sweet rest;
There God will show His smiling face,
To all the good and blest!
Refrain:
There is a home in yonder skies,
Where the saints will rejoice evermore;
There sweetest pleasure never dies,
O what joy when life is o'er!
2 Jehovah reigns supreme on high,
And all is peace and love;
The time is swiftly drawing nigh,
When we shall soar above. [Refrain]
3 There's naught above but perfect bliss,
Contentment never dies;
That region far surpassing this,
'Tis heav'n in yonder skies. [Refrain]
