Lyics

There's a glorious land on high,

Far beyond the starlight sky;

All things there are fair and bright,

Land of beauty, Land of beauty,

Land of beauty, land of light!



Living splendor beameth there--

Holy fragrance fills the air--

All is rich with spotless white;

Land of beauty! land of light!



There no angry tempest blows--

No red bolt the thunder throws--

No dread gloom is spread by night:

Land of beauty! land of light!



There the holy mountains are--

And sweet valleys, stretched afar--

There are rivers, pure and bright:

Land of beauty! land of light!



Radiant verdure decks the ground,

Lovely flowers rejoice around--

All is glorious to the sight:

Land of beauty! land of light!
