Oh, the peaceful resting land,
Where the saints of glory,
Bending at the Saviour’s feet,
Tell the grand old story.
Sweetly they are singing (singing)
Hear the echos ringing (ringing)
In the land of beauty—
Blessed land of song!
Where the cloudless beams of day
Banish care and sadness;
Lo, the reapers enter now,
Bearing sheaves of gladness.
Sweetly they are singing (singing)
Hear the echos ringing (ringing)
In the land of beauty—
Blessed land of song!
Oh, the tender, loving words,
Purest joy revealing!
Soft and low from kindred souls,
On the twilight stealing.
Sweetly they are singing (singing)
Hear the echos ringing (ringing)
In the land of beauty—
Blessed land of song!
Soon together we shall stand
By the crystal river,
There to join the holy throng,
Praising God for ever.
Sweetly they are singing (singing)
Hear the echos ringing (ringing)
In the land of beauty—
Blessed land of song!
