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 blessed

And our spirits shall sorrow no more

Not a sigh 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

To our bountiful father above

We will offer our tribute of praise

For the glorious gift of his love

And the blessings that hallow our days

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 meet on that beautiful shore
