The Land Beyond the Sea!

Author: Anon. Hymnal: Northfield Hymnal #129 (1904) Lyrics: 1 The Land beyond the Sea! How close it sometimes seems, When flush’d with evening’s peaceful gleams; My heart looks o’er the strait, and dreams! It longs to fly to thee, Calm Land beyond the Sea! 2 The Land beyond the Sea! Sometimes across the strait, Like draw-bridge to a castle gate, The sunbeams lie and seem to wait For us to pass to thee, Calm Land beyond the Sea! 3 The Land beyond the Sea! When will our toil be done? Slow-footed years! more swiftly run Into the gold of th’unsetting sun. Homesick we are for thee, Calm Land beyond the Sea! 4 O Land beyond the Sea! Sweet is thine endless rest, But sweeter far that Father’s breast, Upon thy shores fore’er possest; For Jesus reings o’er thee, Calm Land beyond the Sea!
