Beyond the bar on yon­der shore,
Across life’s trou­bled sea,
There is a ci­ty bright and fair,
Prepared for me, pre­pared for me.

Refrain

I’ll need no light of sun or star,
When I my Sav­ior’s face shall see;
That will be light enough for me,
Throughout a blest eter­ni­ty,
Beyond the bar, be­yond the bar.

Beyond the bar the King abides,
Among His jew­els rare;
And some day I shall dwell with Him—
My home is there; my home is there.

Refrain

Beyond the bar there is no death,
And sor­row reigns no more;
There are no bruised and bleed­ing hearts
On that blest shore, on that blest shore.

Refrain

Beyond the bar we’ll meet again,
The friends we’ve missed so long;
And with them sing for­ev­er­more,
Unending song, un­end­ing song.
