In the Sweet Bye and Bye

Cat. #1555 (MFH #1023) - As sung by Arlin Hughes, Winslow, Arkansas on April 14, 1975

VERSE 1
There's a land that is fairer indeed
An' by faith we can see it afar
For th Father waits over th way
To prepare us a dwelling place there

CHORUS:
In th sweet bye an' bye
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In th sweet bye an' bye
We shall meet on that beautiful shore

VERSE 2
We shall sing on that beautiful shore
Th melodious songs of th blest
An' our spirit shall sorrow no more
Not a sigh for th blesings of rest
