There's a land that is fairer than day,
                             G
And by faith we can see it afar,
        C            F          C
For the Father waits over the way
                   G             C
To prepare us a dwelling place there.

The melodious songs of the blessed;

And our spirits shall sorrow no more,

Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
