I am passing down the valley that they say is so lone,
But I find that all the pathway is with flowers overgrown;
’Tis to me the vale of Beulah, ’tis a beautiful way,
For the Savior walks beside me, my Companion all day.
Vale of Beulah! Vale of Beulah! Thou art precious to me;
For the lovely land of Canaan in the distance I see.
Not a shadow, not a shadow ever darkens the way,
For a radiance of rare glory shines upon it all day;
And the music, sweetly chanted by the heavenly throng,
Floats in cadence down the valley, and it cheers me along.
Vale of Beulah! Vale of Beulah! Thou art precious to me;
For the lovely land of Canaan in the distance I see.
So I journey with rejoicing toward the City of Light,
While each day my joy is deeper, and the path grows more bright;
And I near the open portals of the kingdom above,
For this highway leads to Canaan, to the Kingdom of Love.
Vale of Beulah! Vale of Beulah! Thou art precious to me;
For the lovely land of Canaan in the distance I see.
