By and By (Howard)

lyricist: Anna Howard, 1881
Composer: John Sweney

There will be no sin nor pain

By and by

by and by;

All that’s dark will be made plain

By and by

by and by;

For the Lord will come again

Oh

how glo­ri­ous His reign!

Like the sun­shine af­ter rain

By and by

by and by.

By and by

by and by

With our loved ones we shall meet

And the story oft re­peat

Cast our crowns at Je­sus’ feet

By and by

by and by.

Then life’s les­sons we shall learn

By and by

by and by;

Jesus’ words we shall dis­cern

By and by

by and by;

He will ban­ish ev­ery sigh

Let us lift our heads on high;

Our re­demp­tion draw­eth nigh

By and by

by and by.

We shall see Him eye to eye

By and by

by and by;

We shall meet Him in the sky

By and by

by and by;

We shall hear His ten­der tone

We shall be no more alone;

He is com­ing to His own

By and by

by and by.
