50. Sweet By And By
There’s a land that is fairer than day,
And by faith we can see it afar;
For our Father waits over the way
To prepare us a dwelling place there
*CHORUS
In the sweet --------by and by---
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet ---by and by---
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.*
We shall sing on that beautiful shore,
The melodious songs of the blest
And our spirits shall sorrow no more,
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest
To our bountiful Father above,
We will offer a tribute of praise,
For the glorious gift of His love,
And the blessings that hallow our days
