There is a land, I long to see It's across a river wide It is there my saviour waits for me Just on the other side And his gentle calls encourage me Not to fear the river's bed But to steer the course, he's given me Till I reach, my journey's end There is a place, I long to be It is by my saviour's side He has there prepared a place for me In his presence true abide. And he never gazed my ship for me Through the storms that life they set And though the water's deep and wide He'll be there till journey's end Oh I need not fear, the wind and rain As they wash away the sand It is on a solid rock I'd stand Waiting for my lord's command There is a land I long to see It's across a river wide It is there my saviour waits for me Just on the other side And his gentle calls encourage me Not to fear the river's bed But to steer the course he's given me Till I reach my Journey's end
