There is a happy land,
far, far away,
Where saints in glory stand,
bright, bright as day.
Oh, how they sweetly sing,
worthy is our Saviour King,
Loud let His praises ring,
praise, praise for aye.
Come to that happy land,
come, come away;
Why will ye doubting stand,
why still delay?
Oh, we shall happy be,
when from sin and sorrow free,
Lord, we shall live with Thee,
blest, blest for aye.
Bright, in that happy land,
beams every eye;
Kept by a Father’s hand,
love cannot die.
Oh, then to glory run;
be a crown and kingdom won;
And, bright, above the sun,
we reign for aye.
---Alternative verses---
Bright, in that happy land,
beams every eye;
Kept by a Father’s hand,
Saints cannot die.
Oh, then to glory run;
Soon the kingdom will be won;
Then, bright, above the sun,
we reign for aye.
There is a happy land,
Far, far away—
Where saints in glory stand,
Bright, bright as day;
Oh, how they sweetly sing—
Worthy is the Savior King!
Loud let his praises ring
For evermore.
Come to this happy land,
Come, come away;
Why will ye doubting stand?
Why still delay?
Oh, we shall happy be!
When from sin and sorrow free;
Lord, we shall live with thee,
Blest evermore.
Bright in that happy land
Beams every eye;
Kept by a Father’s hand,
Love can not die.
Oh, then, to glory run;
Be a crown and kingdom won;
And bright above the sun,
Reign evermore.
