LyicsKnow ye that better land
Where care's unknown?
Know ye that blessed band
Around the throne?
There, there is happiness,
There streams of purest bliss,
There, there are rest and peace,
There, there alone.
O, yes, we know that place,
We know it well;
Eye hath not seen His face,
Tongue can not tell.
There are the angels bright,
There, saints enrobed in white,
All, all are clothed in light,
There, there they dwell.
O, we are weary here,
A little band;
Yet soon in glory there,
We hope to stand.
Then let us haste away,
Speed o'er this world's dark way
Unto that land of day,
That better land.
