Representative Text

1 Into the great beyond,
Fair land of the morning bright,
Where riseth the glory of God most high
O’er shadowless realms of light.

Refrain:
Into the great beyond,
Over a waveless sea,
Bright angels will carry my soul away,
With Jesus forever to be.

2 Into the great beyond,
Whose gates are of pearl and gold,
Where murmur the waters of life so clear,
That sparkle with joy untold. [Refrain]

3 Into the great beyond,
Where summer eternal reigns,
And covers with lilies of fadeless bloom
The beautiful smiling plains. [Refrain]

4 Into the great beyond,
Where voices I love so well,
Sweet voices that carol the glad new song
Are calling me home to dwell. [Refrain]
