Northfield Hymnal No. 3 ‎#363

363. In Summerland

1 The sun will never set
In Summerland;
No eyes with tears are wet
In Summerland;
No shades of dark’ning night
Will shut the view from sight,
Nor e’er becloud the light,
In Summerland.

2 No one will lose the way
In Summerland;
Nor ever go astray
In Summerland;
No mountain hard to climb,
Yet all is grand, sublime,
With endless summer clime,
In Summerland.

3 No death is ever known
In Summerland;
For life is on the throne
In Summerland;
No mourning for the dead,
No heavy hearts, like lead,
But endless joy instead,
In Summerland.
