Chorus: Never grow old, never grow old, In a land where we’ll never grow old, Never grow old, never grow old, In a land where we’ll never grow old. 2 In that beautiful home where we'll never more roam, We shall be in the sweet by and by; Happy praise to the King thro' eternity sing ’Tis a land where we never shall die.
