There’s a land that is fair and golden,
Half its beauties will never be told;
In its grandeur and glory folden,
I so long this fair land to behold.
Refrain
In that land, so fair and golden
There the story sweet and olden,
Is the theme of angel bands,
In that glory, golden land;
Sing, my soul, sing Amen.
In that land is a golden city,
With its walls built of costliest stone;
Naught on earth can compare in beauty,
With that fair, golden heavenly home.
Refrain
If to Jesus we’re faithful ever,
We shall see all those glories untold;
And shall gaze on their God-like splendor,
Which our earth-sight can never behold.
Refrain
