1. Life has many a pleasant hour,
Many a bright and cloudless day;
Singing bird and smiling flow’r
Scatter sunbeams on our way;
But the sweetest blossoms grow
In the land to which we go.
2. Earth has many a cool retreat,
Many a spot to mem’ry dear;
Oft we find our weary feet
Ling’ring by some fountain clear;
Yet the purest waters flow
In the land to which we go.
3. Like a cloud that floats away,
Like the early morning dew,
Here the fairest things decay;
There are pleasures ever new.
Only joy the heart will know
In the land to which we go.
4. ‘Tis the Christian’s promised land;
There is everlasting day;
There is a Savior’s loving hand
Wipes the mourner’s tears away;
Oh! the rapture we shall know
In the land to which we go.
