Sweet By and By

Melody - Joseph P. Webster, 1868; Seq. by Werner Tomaschewski

Sanford Fillmore Bennett, 1868

There's a land that is fairer than day,
And by faith we can see it afar;
For the Father waits over the way,
To prepare us a dwelling place there.
Chorus:
|: In the sweet by and by,
We shall meet on that beautiful shore. :|

2. We shall sing on that beautiful shore,
The melodious songs of the blessed,
And our spirits shall sorrow no more,
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
Chorus:

3. To our bountiful Father above,
We will offer our tribute of praise,
For the glorious gift of His love,
And the blessings that hallow our days.
Chorus:
