Sweet By and By


G                                  C               G                                                    D
There's a land that is fairer than day, and by faith we can see it afar,
             G                    C           G                                 D                      G
For the Father waits over the way to prepare us a dwelling place there.


G                                                          D
In the sweet ( in the sweet )  by and by, ( by and by, ) 
                                                     G
We shall meet on that beautiful shore, ( by and by )
                                                             C
In the sweet ( in the sweet )  by and by, ( by and by, )
                G                   D             G
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.


G                                  C            G                                                       D
We shall sing on that beautiful shore the melodious songs of the blest.
               G                 C              G                                      D                 G
And our spirits shall sorrow no more, not a sigh for the blessing of rest.


G                        C            G                                                  D
To our bountiful Father above we will offer our tribute of praise,
              G           C              G                                            D                G
For the glorious gift of His love and the blessings that hallow our days.
