I am dwelling on the mountain,
Where the golden sunlight gleams
O�er a land whose wondrous beauty
Far exceeds my fondest dreams,
Where the air is pure, ethereal,
Laden with the breath of flowers,
They are blooming by the fountain,
�Neath the amaranthine bow�rs.
Refrain
Is not this the Land of Beulah?
Bless�d, bless�d land of light;
Where the flowers bloom forever,
And the sun is always bright.
I can see far down the mountain,
Where I wandered weary years,
Often hindered in my journey,
By the ghosts of doubt and fears;
Broken vows and disappointments,
Thickly sprinkled all the way,
But the Spirit led, unerring,
To the land I hold today.
Refrain
I am drinking at the fountain,
Where I ever would abide,
For I�ve tasted life�s pure river,
And my soul is satisfied;
There�s no thirsting for life�s pleasures,
Nor adorning rich and gay,
For I�ve found a richer treasure,
One that fadeth not away.
Refrain
Tell me not of heavy crosses,
Nor the burdens hard to bear,
For I�ve found this great salvation
Makes each burden light appear;
And I love to follow Jesus,
Gladly counting all but dross,
Worldly honors all forsaking,
For the glory of the cross.
Refrain
