Beyond this land of parting, losing, and leaving Far beyond the losses, darkening this And far beyond the taking and the bereaving Lies a summer land of bliss! Chorus: Land beyond (land beyond), so fair and bright! Land beyond (land beyond), where is no night! Summer land (summer land), God is it's light Oh, happy summer land of bliss! Beyond this land of toiling, sowing and reaping Far beyond the shadows darkening this And far beyond the sighing, moaning, and weeping Lies a summerland of bliss! Repeat Chorus Beyond this land of waiting, seeking, and sighing Far beyond the sorrows darkening this And far beyond the pain, and sickness and dying Lies a summer land of bliss! Repeat Chorus Land beyond (land beyond), so fair and bright! (so fair and bright) Land beyond (land beyond), where is no night! (there is no night) Summer land (summer land), God is its light (God is its light) Oh, happy summer land of bliss! (summer land of bliss) Scriptural Reference: "The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces" Isaiah 25:8
