Sweet Bye And Bye
Journey to the Celestial Horizon: Sweet By and By
Lyrics
There's a land that is fairer than day
Describing a heavenly place that is more beautiful than daytime.
cnd by faith we can see it afar
Through belief, one can perceive this heavenly place from a distance.
For the Father waits over the way
God is waiting on the other side, ready to welcome us.
To prepare us a dwelling place there
God is preparing a home for us in that heavenly place.
In the sweet by and by
Reinforces the concept of the heavenly place described.
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
Anticipation of meeting others in this beautiful place.
In the sweet by and by
Reiteration of the anticipation of meeting in the heavenly place.
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
Reaffirmation of meeting on the beautiful shore in the future.
We shall sing on that beautiful shore
Expectation of singing together in the heavenly place.
The melodious songs of the blessed
Describing the beautiful songs of the blessed that will be sung.
cnd our spirit shall sorrow no more
In that place, there will be no sorrow for our spirits.
Not a sign for the blessing of rest
No indication will signal the need for rest because of blessings.
In the sweet by and by
Reiterating the expectation of meeting in the heavenly place.
We shall meet on that beautiful shore

To our bountiful Father above
Expressing gratitude to God with a tribute of praise.
We will offer the tribute of praise
Offering praise and thanks to God.
For the glorious gift of His love,
God's love is a magnificent gift for which praise is offered.
cnd the blessings that hallow our days
Gratitude for the blessings that sanctify our days.
In the sweet by and by
Repeated anticipation of meeting on the beautiful shore.
