Hymn 431
Over Yonder
Verse 1
Come, let us sing of homeland,
Down by the crystal sea;
Wonderful land where Jesus
Buildeth a mansion for me.
There’s where I long to be,
No more sorrow, toil, grief, nor care,
Down by the crystal sea;
Wonderful land where Jesus
Buildeth a mansion for me.
There’s where I long to be,
No more sorrow, toil, grief, nor care,
Chorus
Over yonder, down by the crystal sea,
Over yonder,
In the homeland bright and fair,
Over, over there.
Over yonder,
In the homeland bright and fair,
Over, over there.
Verse 2
Water of life there floweth,
Fruit in abundant store;
Citizens of that country
Hunger and thirst nevermore.
Fruit in abundant store;
Citizens of that country
Hunger and thirst nevermore.
Chorus
Over yonder, down by the crystal sea,
Over yonder,
In the homeland bright and fair,
Over, over there.
Over yonder,
In the homeland bright and fair,
Over, over there.
Verse 3
Come go with me to homeland,
Jesus invites you there;
Help spread the invitation,
Tell it to men everywhere.
Jesus invites you there;
Help spread the invitation,
Tell it to men everywhere.
Chorus
Over yonder, down by the crystal sea,
Over yonder,
In the homeland bright and fair,
Over, over there.
Over yonder,
In the homeland bright and fair,
Over, over there.
