The New “Over There”

Appears in 36 hymnals Matching Instances: 36 First Line: They have reach'd the sunny shore Refrain First Line: Over there, over there Lyrics: 1 They have reach’d the sunny shore, And will never hunger more, All their grief and pains are o’er, Over there; And they need no lamp by night, For their day is always bright, And their Saviour is their light, Over there. Refrain: Over there, over there, They can never know a fear, Over there; All their streets are shining gold, And their glory is untold, ‘Tis the Saviour’s blissful fold, Over there. 2 Now they feel no chilling blast, For their winter time is past, And their summers always last, Over there; They can never know a fear, For the Saviour’s always near, And with them is endless cheer, Over there. [Refrain] 3 They have fought the weary fight, Jesus sav’d them by his might, Now they dwell with him in light, Over there; Soon we’ll reach the shining strand, But we’ll wait our Lord’s command, ‘Till we see his beck’ning hand, Over there. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [They have reach'd the sunny shore]
