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.

The melodious songs of the blest;
And our spirits shall sorrow no more-
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest. [Refrain]

We will offer our tribute of praise
For the glorious gift of His love
And the blessings that hallow our days. [Refrain] Topics: Heaven and Everlasting Life Languages: English Tune Title: [There's a land that is fairer than day]
