[00:01.57] |
There are loved ones in the glory |
[00:07.48] |
Whose dear forms you often miss |
[00:14.39] |
When you close your earthly story |
[00:20.90] |
Will you join them in their bliss? |
[00:27.88] |
Will the circle be unbroken |
[00:34.43] |
By and by, by and by? |
[00:41.22] |
Is a better home awaiting |
[00:47.87] |
In the sky, in the sky? |
[00:54.68] |
In the joyous days of childhood |
[01:01.12] |
Of they told of wondrous love |
[01:07.55] |
Pointed to the dying saviour |
[01:14.32] |
Now they dwell with him above |
[01:21.23] |
Will the circle be unbroken |
[01:27.70] |
By and by, by and by? |
[01:34.37] |
Is a better home awaiting |
[01:40.88] |
In the sky, in the sky? |
[01:47.81] |
You remember songs of heaven |
[01:54.38] |
Which you sang with childish voice |
[02:01.01] |
Do you love the hymns they taught you |
[02:07.67] |
Or are songs of earth your choice? |
[02:14.32] |
You can picture happy gath'rings |
[02:20.96] |
Round the fireside long ago |
[02:27.66] |
And you think of tearful partings |
[02:34.45] |
When they left you here below |
[02:41.54] |
Will the circle be unbroken |
[02:47.58] |
By and by, by and by? |
[02:54.35] |
Is a better home awaiting |
[03:01.27] |
In the sky, in the sky? |
[03:07.82] |
One by one their seats were emptied |
[03:14.32] |
One by one they went away |
[03:21.07] |
Now the family is parted |
[03:27.79] |
Will it be complete one day? |
[03:34.59] |
Will the circle be unbroken |
[03:41.06] |
By and by, by and by? |
[03:47.82] |
Is a better home awaiting |
[03:54.31] |
In the sky, in the sky? |
