431. Over Yonder

Verse 1

Come, let us sing of homeland,

Down by the crystal sea;

Wonderful land where Jesus

Buildeth a mansion for me.

Chorus 1

Over yonder, down by the crystal sea,

Over yonder, There's where I long to be,

No more sorrow, toil, grief, nor care,

In the homeland bright and fair,

Over, over there.

Verse 2

Water of life there floweth,

Fruit in abundant store;

Citizens of that country

Hunger and thirst nevermore.

Chorus 3

Over yonder, down by the crystal sea,

Over yonder, There's where I long to be,

No more sorrow, toil, grief, nor care,

In the homeland bright and fair,

Over, over there.

Verse 4

Come go with me to homeland,

Jesus invites you there;

Help spread the invitation,

Tell it to men everywhere.

Chorus 5

Over yonder, down by the crystal sea,

Over yonder, There's where I long to be,

No more sorrow, toil, grief, nor care,

In the homeland bright and fair,

Over, over there.
