There's a land brighter than day
Our eyes can only see it with faith
Over the way our Father waits
To welcome us to a safe dwelling place
In the sweet by and by
In the sweet by and by
We will meet
You and I
You and I
In the sweet, in the sweet, by and by
We will sing on the beautiful shore
The melodious songs of the blessed
And our spirits shall sorrow no more
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest
In the sweet by and by
In the sweet by and by
We will meet
You and I
You and I
In the sweet, in the sweet, by and by
To my father above
I will offer up my thanks
For the glorious gift of love
And the blessings that hallow our days
