142. Beautiful

1 Beautiful robes so white,
Beautiful land of light,
Beautiful home so bright,
Where there shall come no night,
Beautiful crowns I'll wear,
Shining with stars o'er there,
Yonder in mansions fair,
Gather us there.

Refrain:
Beautiful robes, Beautiful land,
Beautiful home, Beautiful band,
Beautiful crown, Shining so fair,
Beautiful mansion bright, gather us there.

2 Beautiful tho't to me,
We shall forever be
Thine in eternity,
When from this world we're free;
Free from its toil and care,
Heavenly joys to share,
Let me cross over there,
This is my pray'r. [Refrain]

3 Beautiful things on high,
Over in yonder sky,
That I shall leave this shore,
Counting my treasures o'er.
Where we shall never die,
Carry me by and by,
Never to sorrow more,
Heavenly store. [Refrain]
