Sweet By And By

Track #11 on the CD Join The Chorus

I chose to conclude this CD with a simple violin instrumental version of the old hymn In The Sweet By And By. There are three verses, starting with a solo violin, and then adding a violin harmony with each verse.

The words of the hymn, though they are not on the CD, are included below.

Listen to a short audio clip

In The Sweet By And By
There's a land that is fairer than day, And by faith we can see it afar;
For the Father waits over the way To prepare us a dwelling place there.

In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore;
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.

We shall sing on that beautiful shore The melodious songs of the blest,
And our spirits shall sorrow no more Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.

To our bountiful father above We will offer our tribute of praise;
For the glorious gift of His love And the blessings that hallow our days
