When joy is a memory as faint as a dream
And you su er in silence where others would scream
Be still in the knowing there’s peace for the mind
Every soul is bid welcome on life’s other side
Oh brother, oh sister, please answer the call
When trouble and trial and shadow hides all
Our lost and our wayward will soon come to nd
eir path to pure sunlight on life’s other side
On life’s other side we’ll wander and tarry no more
On life’s other side we’ll carry the weight of this old world no more
We'll walk with each other with nothing to hide
Every path of pure sunlight on life’s other side
You mothers, you fathers who’ve given your all
You sons and you daughters who've built your own walls
Your walls will come tumbling with nary a sound
No harm and no blame for all burdens laid down
On life’s other side we’ll wander and tarry no more
On life’s other side we’ll carry the weight of this old world no more
We'll walk with each other with nothing to hide
Every sorrow forgiven on life’s other side
Every path of pure sunlight on life’s other side
