Over There (Grier)

Composer: Andrew Grier, Jr., 1918

When my work on earth is done

I shall go at set of sun

Over there

ov­er there;

To that home of joy un­told

Where the streets are paved with gold

Over there

ov­er there.

Over there

ov­er there

Lies a won­drous ci­ty bright and fair;

And from ev­ery sor­row free

I shall spend eter­ni­ty

Over there

ov­er there.

Many loved ones for me wait

Just beyond the pear­ly gate

Over there

ov­er there;

And they with the an­gels sing

Praises to the Sav­ior

King

Over there

ov­er there.

O no sor­row

death and night

Can that gold­en ci­ty blight

Over there

ov­er there;

And for aye I shall ab­ide

Safe with all the glo­ri­fied

Over there

ov­er there.
