and by Oh by and by Is a better home awaiting
In the sky Oh in the sky
Verses:
There are loved ones in the glory
Whose dear forms you often miss
When you close your earthly story
Will you join them in their bliss?
In the joyous days of childhood
Oh they told us of His Love
Pointed to the dying Saviour
Now they dwell with Him above
you can picture happy gath’rings
round the fireside long ago
and you think of tearful partings
when they left you here below
one by one their seats were emptied
one by one they went away
now the family is parted
will it be complete one day?
