224. Come to the Shining Land

1 Fair is the morning land, bright is the shore,
Where all the saints of God dwell evermore.

Chorus:
Come to the shining land,
Come, come away;
Join with the angel band,
Beautiful as they;
Come, all ye faithful ones,
hear the word today;
Come to the shining land,
come, come away.

2 There in the morning land, sweetly they sing;
Jesus its glory is, Jesus is King. [Chorus]

3 There in the morning land, all, all is fair;
This is the joy they feel, Jesus is there. [Chorus]
