There is a
better
world, they
say
O so bright!
O so bright!
Where sin
and woe are
done away,
O so bright!
O so bright!
And music
fills the
balmy air,
And angels
with bright
wings are
there,
And harps of
gold and
mansions
fair,
O so bright!
O so bright!
No clouds
e�er pass
along that
sky,
Happy land!
Happy land!
No tear
drops
glisten in
the eye,
Happy land!
Happy land!
They drink
the gushing
streams of
grace,
And gaze
upon the
Savior�s
face
Whose
brightness
fills the
holy place;
Happy land!
Happy land!
And
wicked
things and
beasts of
prey,
Come not
there! Come
not there!
And ruthless
death and
fierce
decay,
Come not
there! Come
not there!
There all
are holy,
all are
good,
But hearts
unwashed in
Jesus�
blood,
And guilty
sinners
unrenewed,
Come not
there! Come
not there!
And
though we�re
sinners
every one,
Jesus died!
Jesus died!
And though
our crown of
peace is
gone,
Jesus died!
Jesus died!
We may be
cleansed
from every
stain,
We may be
crowned with
bliss again,
And in that
land of
glory reign;
Jesus died!
Jesus died!
