| 1 Just beyond life’s purpling twilight, And its sunset gates of gold, Lies a land of wondrous beauty, Full of joy and peace untold. Refrain: Blessed homeland, heavenly homeland, Just beyond earth’s darkest night, Where the tree of life is blooming, And the skies are ever bright. 2 Just beyond life’s moaning surges, And its billows’ ceaseless roll, Hidden from our earth-dimmed vision, Lies the homeland of the soul. [Refrain] 3 And tho’ hidden by the shadows, Glorious sunshine sometimes falls, Radiant gleams of Heaven’s splendor, From its jeweled jasper walls. [Refrain] 4 Just beyond our weary watching, Just beyond our doubts and fears, Just beyond our hopes and longings, Just beyond our pain and tears. [Refrain] 5 Just beyond the curtain lifting, We shall see the glittering towers, Of that distant longed for haven, In God’s summerland of flowers. [Refrain] | The Cyber Hymnal #13998 |
