There’s a Land Beyond the Jordan

There’s a land be­yond the Jor­dan

Where joys ce­les­ti­al reign

Where the cares of life re­sign­ing

We a heav’n­ly crown shall gain;

There’s a land be­yond the Jor­dan

Oh glo­ri­ous

hap­py thought;

We shall come in­to His pre­sence

For Christ our ran­som bought.

There’s a land be­yond the Jor­dan

And dear ones gone be­fore

Will be the first to greet us

When we reach the oth­er shore;

There’s a land be­yond the Jor­dan

Oh peace­ful

heav’n­ly thought;

We shall come in­to the kingdom

The blood of Je­sus bought.

There’s a land be­yond the Jor­dan

A land of end­less day;

Our feet must toil to reach it

But the Sav­ior leads the way;

There’s a land be­yond the Jor­dan

And bless­èd

bless­èd thought

An en­trance to that coun­try

For us our Sav­ior bought.
