In The Sweet By And By Lyrics

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.
[Chorus]
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.
[Chorus]
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.
