There is a far and distant land
Of which we all must dream,
Where tears turn into diamonds
And laughter flows in streams,
Where children play along the shore
And dance in bright sunbeams.
Where hungers are all satisfied
And long-held wounds are healed,
Where sin and strife are but a dream
And troubled thoughts have ceased.
There is a far and distant land
To which we all must look,
And if I knew it very well
I’d write it in a book.
‘Til then while life’s strains take up time,
Our hope is in that land divine
