Yonder Shore

by: Branford Clark

Life may have clouds, but when I think of Jesus
The sun breaks thro’ its radiance to outpour
And far away I hear the song of angels
Singing, singing, singing on yonder shore.

There is a cross that every one must carry
Long a thorned path whose toils will soon be o’er
Then at His feet shall we lay down our burdens
With the fair immortals on yonder shore.

While trav’ling on to that eternal haven
Here in the heart can be fair Canaan’s door
Thro’ which the love of Jesus softly stealing
Fills the soul with glory from yonder shore.

There is a death, but it is only mortal
The soul lives on and on for evermore.
How wonderful to dwell for aye with Jesus
Ever and forever on yonder shore.

Chorus
Singing on that shore
Singing on that shore
Hark, I hear them singing
Singing, ever, singing on yonder shore.
