We shall be for­ev­er blest
In that home of peace and rest,
When from earth the Lord shall set our spir­its free;
There with loved ones we shall dwell,
Nevermore to say fare­well,
In that ci­ty just across death’s stor­my sea.

Refrain

Just across death’s stor­my sea
Is a home for you and me;
There with loved ones we shall dwell,
Nevermore to say fare­well,
In that ci­ty just across death’s stor­my sea.

We shall live with Je­sus there,
In that land so bright and fair,
When our toiling days are gone for­ev­er­more;
With the an­gels we shall sing
Joyful prais­es to our king,
When we’ve reached the land­ing on that hap­py shore.

Refrain

Come to Je­sus, way­ward soul,
He will cleanse and make you whole,
If you on­ly trust and serve Him ev­er­more;
To your trou­bled, con­trite heart
Peace and joy He will im­part,
And will greet you on that bright ce­les­ti­al shore.

Refrain
