Author: Alice Jean Cleator Hymnal: Uplifted Voices #127 (1901) First Line: Beyond the shadows of the sinking day Refrain First Line: The Sunshine Land we soon shall see Lyrics: 1 Beyond the shadows of the sinking day,
Beyond the winter and the gleam of May,
Beyond the storms that beat the rocky strand,
There waits the blessed Sunshine Land.
Refrain:
The Sunshine Land we soon shall see,
And O how happy we shall be;
From every sin and sorrow free,
There to dwell eternally.
2 Beyond the weary sickness and the pain,
Beyond the loss and eager strife for gain,
Beyond the tempter seeking to command,
There waits the blessed Sunshine Land. [Refrain]
3 Beyond the bloom of spring and autumn bright,
Beyond the morn and darkness of the night,
Beyond the fears that rise on every hand,
There waits the blessed Sunshine Land. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Beyond the shadows of the sinking day]
The Sunshine Land
