Beyond The Sunset
 

Beyond the sunset, O blissful morning.
When with our Savior heaven's begun.
Earth's toiling ended, O glorious dawning
Beyond the sunset when day is done.

Should you go first and I remain
to walk the road alone,
I'll live in memories garden dear,
with happy days we've known.

In spring I'll wait for roses red,
when faded, the lilacs blue.
In early fall when brown leaves fall,
I'll catch a glimpse of you.
 

Should you go first and I remain,
for battle to be fought.
Each thing you've touched along the way
 will be a hallowed spot.

I'll hear your voice, I'll see your smile,
though blindly I may grope,
The memory of your helping hand
will buoy me on with hope.

Should you go first and I remain,
one thing I'll have you do:
Walk slowly down that long long path,
 for soon I'll follow you.

I want to know each step you take,
so I may take the same.
For someday down that lonely road
 you'll hear me call your name.

In that fair homeland
We'll know no parting
Beyond the sunset
For ever more
 

 Beyond the Sunset

Melody Blanche Kerr Brock, 1936
 Words - Virgil P. Brock, 1936

 Beyond the sunset,
   O blissful morning,
    When with our Savior
 Heav'n is begun.
Earth's toiling ended,
    O glorious dawning;
    Beyond the sunset
    When day is done.

 Beyond the sunset,
      No clouds will gather,
      No storms will threaten,
      No fears annoy;
      O day of gladness,
      O day unending,
      Beyond the sunset,
      Eternal Joy.

 Beyond the sunset,
    A hand will guide me
    To God, the Father,
    Whom I adore;
    His glorious presence,
    His words of welcome,
    Will be my portion
    On that fair shore.

 Beyond the sunset,
      O glad reunion,
      With our dear loved ones
      Who've gone before;
      In that fair homeland
      We'll know no parting,
      Beyond the sunset
      For ever more!
