Lyrics

[Verse 1]
C              C           F        C
 There's a land that is fairer than day
                                G
And by faith we can see it apart
           C          F          C
For the father waits over the way
                G              C
To prepare us a dwelling place there

[Chorus]
            C       G
In the sweet by and by
                                     C
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
               C7    F
In the sweet by  and by
         C            G              C
We shall meet on that beautiful shore

[Verse 2]
         C            F              C
We shall sing on that beautiful shore
                                  G
The melodious songs of the blessed
        C             F         C
And our spirits shall sorrow no more
                   G           C
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest

[Chorus]
            C       G
In the sweet by and by
                                C
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
             C7     F
In the sweet by and by
         C            G              C
We shall meet on that beautiful shore

[Verse 3]
           C        F    C
To our bountiful father above
                                   G
We will offer our tribute of praise
        C        F           C
For the glorious gift of His love
                       G          C
And His blessings that hallow our days

[Chorus]
            C       G
In the sweet by and by
                                C
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
             C7     F
In the sweet by and by
         C                G          C F C
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
