The Wonderful Story (Sims)

Tell me again of that beau­ti­ful home

Jesus has gone to pre­pare

That we in sor­row no long­er may roam

In that blest ci­ty up there.

Wonderful sto­ry! Won­der­ful sto­ry!

Jesus is com­ing

com­ing in glo­ry

Coming to ga­ther His jew­els

His own

Take them in joy to His beau­ti­ful home.

Tell me again that no sick­ness e’er comes

Into that home of the blest

That He is com­ing to ga­ther His own

Take them at last to His rest.

Tell me again that His love is the light

Darkness will nev­er come there;

Day ev­er­last­ing shall ban­ish the night

Pleasures shall ban­ish all care.

Tell me again that He rose from the dead

Went to His Fa­ther on high

That He is com­ing to take us there

too

In that sweet

sweet By and By.
