1. Beyond this land of parting,
losing and leaving,
Far beyond the losses darkening this,
And far beyond the taking and the bereaving,
Lies the summer-land of bliss.
Refrain:
Land beyond, so fair and bright!
Land beyond where is no night!
Summer-land, God is its Light,
O happy summer-land of bliss!
Land beyond, so fair and bright!
Land beyond where is no night!
Summer-land, God is its Light,
O happy summer-land of bliss!
2. Beyond this land of toiling,
sowing and reaping,
Far beyond the shadows darkening this,
And far beyond the sighing,
moaning and weeping,
Lies the summer-land of bliss.
sowing and reaping,
Far beyond the shadows darkening this,
And far beyond the sighing,
moaning and weeping,
Lies the summer-land of bliss.
[Refrain]
3. Beyond this land of waiting,
seeking and sighing,
Far beyond the sorrows darkening this,
And far beyond the pain
and sickness and dying
Lies the summer-land of bliss.
seeking and sighing,
Far beyond the sorrows darkening this,
And far beyond the pain
and sickness and dying
Lies the summer-land of bliss.
[Refrain]
