1. Just over the hills a river,
Beyond the river a light,
Green palms and stately cedars,
And skies that are always bright.
A land of golden summer,
A clime beyond compare,
Where verdure never ceases:—
No night is ever there.
Refrain:
No night (No night, no night) is there (is ever there),
No night is ever there,
(No night is ever, ever there,)
A land of golden summer:—
No night is ever there (ever there).
2. No tongue can tell its beauty,
Or heart its love express,
There flow the living waters,
‘Mid banks that angels press.
And balmy breezes laden
With sweets divinely fair;
There dwells the Prince of Glory,
No night is ever there.
3. No sin is in its valley,
No blight is on its hills;
There sickness cannot enter,
No wasting fever kills.
Within it dwells no sorrow,
No tears or anxious care;
O blessed home of Jesus!—
No night is ever there.
