Just over in the gloryland.

Just over in the gloryland,
I’ll join the happy angel band,
Just over in the gloryland;
Just over in the gloryland,
There with the mighty host I’ll stand,
Just over in the gloryland.

Just over in the gloryland;
There to sing God’s praise, and His glory share,
Just over in the gloryland. [Refrain]

Just over in the gloryland;
And with kindred saved, there forever be,
Just over in the gloryland. [Refrain]

Glad hosannas to Christ, the Lord and King,
Just over in the gloryland. [Refrain] Topics: Aspiration; Church, Family of Believers; Cleansing; Everlasting Life; God Glory and Power; Heaven; Jesus Christ Savior; Joy; Praise; Salvation Scripture: Ephesians 2:19 Languages: English Tune Title: IN THE GLORYLAND
