Next to me, there's an angel He lifts me up on mountains high When my world falls to pieces He's always there to dry my eyes Beyond the tears, I'll be with Jesus Standing near the one I adore Beyond the tears, I will press forward 'Cause peace will come beyond the tears When it seems tribulation Follows me from door to door But I know God teaches patience One day soon, I'll be restored, yes, I will Beyond the tears, I'll be with Jesus Standing near the one I adore Beyond the tears, I will press forward 'Cause peace will come beyond the tears If your heart is full of sorrow If you hurt most every day Bear in mind that your homeland Is above the clouds faraway Beyond the tears, I'll be with Jesus Standing near the one I adore Beyond the tears, I will press forward, yes, I will 'Cause peace will come beyond the tears 'Cause peace will come beyond the tears
