The Heavenly Summerland

1 Beyond the sunset gates of gold,
Beyond the ocean’s gleaming strand,
There is a land of joy untold—
A Heav’nly Summerland!

Refrain:
O Summerland of joy and light,
Beyond the shadows of the night!
No storms shall sweep thy golden strand,
O Heav’nly Summerland!

2 O fadeless are the flow’rs that bloom
Upon that bright and happy shore;
There is no sorrow, pain nor gloom
But joy forevermore! [Refrain]

3 Within that happy home on high,
Long severed friends clasp hand with hand,
And none shall ever say goodbye,
In Heaven’s Summerland! [Refrain]

4 We shall behold the Saviour’s face,
As ‘round the great white throne we stand,
And share the wonders of His grace,
In Heaven’s Summerland! [Refrain]
