Across the Blue

Beyond the stars our loved ones wait

And watch for us be­side the gate;

They wait for me

they watch for you

In that fair land across the blue.

Across the blue

across the blue

From Pis­gah’s height be­hold the view;

Friends wait for me and watch for you

In sin­less land

across the blue.

We long to join our loved ones there

And with them breathe on Heav­en’s air

The song that is for­ev­er new

In glo­ry land

across the blue.

When we shall reach the streets of gold

We will our Sav­ior’s face be­hold;

We’ll kiss the hand that led us thro’

To man­sions fair across the blue.

Then let us work and do our best

Soon God will take us home to rest;

For if He finds us tried and true

We’ll live with Him across the blue.

Till then

my soul

be still and wait;

Soon thou wilt pass the pear­ly gate;

Then what a meet­ing will en­sue

With those we love across the blue.
