Beyond the Mystic River

There is a home of won­drous beau­ty

Lovely and bright;

Built by our bless­èd

lov­ing Sav­ior

Hid from our mor­tal sight.

Oh

my heart is fond­ly yearn­ing

Yonder courts to roam;

Gladly each mo­ment draws me near­er

To my eter­nal home.

This home is one of bliss im­mor­tal;

Happy we’ll be

When walk­ing thro’ the streets of glo­ry

From ev­ery care set free.

There in that land of song and beau­ty

All Heav­en rings

With prais­es to our blest Re­deem­er

Savior

and King of kings.

Jesus is dai­ly call­ing loved ones

Home one by one;

We

too

shall cross the mys­tic riv­er

When all our work is done.
