1 Dreams of a land mine eyes shall see,
Sweep thro’ my soul tonight;
Land where the glorified will be,
Robed in eternal light.

Refrain:
Oh, land, beautiful land
Where my Savior dwells,
Place of which my Bible
And the ages tell,
Oh, land, beautiful land
Where sweet music swells,
Won’t you meet me there?

2 Dreams of the songs
Mine eyes shall hear,
Flood all my soul tonight;
Songs whispering words
Of hope and cheer,
Known in the song-land bright. [Refrain]

3 Dream of all dreams when I awake,
And look upon His face;
Dream of all dreams,
When morn shall break,
And I am saved by grace. [Refrain]
