Beyond Our Sight
A City Four-Square Lieth,
Above The Clouds,
The Fogs And Mists Of Earth;
And None But Souls
That Jesus Purifieth
Can See Its Walls,
Or Hear Its Holy Mirth.
Beyond Our Sight,
Beyond Our Night,
Beyond This World’s Sad Story;
That City Bright,
It Stands In Light,
The Home Of All The Holy.
Secure And Strong,
This Heavenly City Builded
By Christ The Lamb
For All The Blood-Washed Throng,
Gleams Fair And Bright,
With Golden Glory Gilded,
For Ever Thrilling
With Triumphant Song.
Beyond Our Sight,
Beyond Our Night,
Beyond This World’s Sad Story;
That City Bright,
It Stands In Light,
The Home Of All The Holy.
There, On The Throne,
The Lamb Once Slain Is Seated,
The Shepherd’s Joy
Upon His Holy Face;
While Countless Hosts,
Their Warfare All Completed,
In Circling Bands,
Lift Ceaseless Songs Of Praise.
Beyond Our Sight,
Beyond Our Night,
Beyond This World’s Sad Story;
That City Bright,
It Stands In Light,
The Home Of All The Holy.
O Sorrowing Souls, Beneath
Earth’s Burdens Bending,
Lift Up Your Eyes
To Yonder City Fair;
And Through Your Tears
Let Praise Be Still Ascending
For Rest, And Home,
And Loved Ones Waiting There.
Beyond Our Sight,
Beyond Our Night,
Beyond This World’s Sad Story;
That City Bright,
It Stands In Light,
The Home Of All The Holy.
