Just Over Yonder

Author: F. A. B. Hymnal: GA1888 #161 (1888) First Line: There's a better world than this Lyrics: 1. There's a better world than this, Just over yonder; Just beyond the dark abyss, Just over yonder. There are fields of living green, There decay no more is seen; Skies unclouded, all serene, Just over yonder. 2. There is hope for the opprest, Just over yonder; There is joy for the distrest, Just over yonder. Grief shall there be felt no more, Days of weeping all are o'er; Shadowless immortal shore, Just over yonder. 3. We shall meet the loved ones gone, Just over yonder; There sweet faces look upon, Just over yonder. We shall greet them as of yore, They will love us as before; We shall part from them no more, Just over yonder. 4. But most wondrous! I shall see, Just over yonder, Him who gave His life for me, Just over yonder. Bleeding then on Calvary; Interceding now for me; Blessed hope, with Christ to be, Just over yonder. Tune Title: [There's a better world than this]

Chiefest Among Ten Thousand

Hymnal: GA1888 #168 (1888) First Line: Earthly friends with bliss surround me Lyrics: 1. Earthly friends with bliss surround me, Love's own air I gently breathe; Beauties new, above, around me, Their beguiling witch'ries weave. But their temptings, Sweet, soft, temptings On me vainly, coldly fall; For my Saviour, My own Saviour Is more fair, more dear than all. 2. They can bitterly deceive me; They can promise and not give; In my darkest hours they leave me, Hopelessly alone to grieve. In my sorrow, Pain and sorrow, They have naught that can avail; But my Saviour, My strong Saviour Will not leave me, cannot fail. 3. He is all my joy, my pleasure, All my hope, my stay, my trust; Here my soul's abiding treasure, Firm and faithful, true and just. In the future, Dim dark future, He is all the light I see; Oh! my Saviour, My own Saviour, Heav'n is nothing without Thee. 4. In that world of rest and glory, There are joys so pure and free; With the pure and good that love Thee, There is endless bliss for me. There is safety, Rest and safety, From all sin, all sorrow free; Oh! my Saviour, My own Saviour, May I ever live with Thee. Tune Title: [Earthly friends with bliss surround me]
