There Is a Better World

Author: John Lyth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6743 First Line: There is a better world, they say Lyrics: 1. There is a better world, they say O so bright! O so bright! Where sin and woe are done away, O so bright! O so bright! And music fills the balmy air, And angels with bright wings are there, And harps of gold and mansions fair, O so bright! O so bright! 2. No clouds e’er pass along that sky, Happy land! Happy land! No tear drops glisten in the eye, Happy land! Happy land! They drink the gushing streams of grace, And gaze upon the Savior’s face Whose brightness fills the holy place; Happy land! Happy land! 3. And wicked things and beasts of prey, Come not there! Come not there! And ruthless death and fierce decay, Come not there! Come not there! There all are holy, all are good, But hearts unwashed in Jesus’ blood, And guilty sinners unrenewed, Come not there! Come not there! 4. And though we’re sinners every one, Jesus died! Jesus died! And though our crown of peace is gone, Jesus died! Jesus died! We may be cleansed from every stain, We may be crowned with bliss again, And in that land of glory reign; Jesus died! Jesus died!

Better World

Hymnal: The Little Minstrel #66 (1867) First Line: There is a better world they say Lyrics: 1 There is a better world they say, O, so bright! O, so bright! Where sin and woe are done away, O, so bright! O, so bright! There music fills the balmy air, And angels with bright wings are there. And harps of gold and mansions fair, O, so bright! O, so bright! 2 No clouds e'er pass along its sky, Happy land, happy land! No tear-drops glisten in the eye, Happy land, happy land! They drink the gushing streams of grace, And gaze upon the Savior's face, Where brightness fills the holy place, Happy land, happy land! 3 But though we're sinners every one, Jesus died, Jesus died! And though our crown of peace is gone, Jesus died, Jesus died! We may be cleansed from every stain, We may be crowned with bliss again, And in that land of pleasure reign, Jesus died, Jesus died! 4 Then parents, brother, sisters, come, Come away, come away! We long to reach our Father's home. Come away, come away! O come, the time is fleeting past, And men and things are fading fast, Our time will surely come at last, Come away, come away! 5 This world is oft so dark and drear, Take us there, take us there! We ne'er can be so happy here, Take us there, take us there! O listen to that music sweet, It comes so rich from yonder seat, Where all the good in glory meet, Take us there, take us there!
