Verse 1: It may be far, it may be near, There is a hope, there is a fear, But in the future waiting, I Shall Jesus see, yes, “by and by.” By and by, yes, by and by, By and by, yes, by and by; But in the future waiting, I Shall Jesus see, yes, “by and by.
Verse 2: Impatient soul, and murm’ring heart,Your murm’ring cease and bear your part Of pain and labor on life’s road, For soon ’twill lead thee to thy God. By and by, yes, by and by, By and by, yes, by and by; There’s pain and labor on life’s road, But soon ’twill lead thee to thy God.
Verse 3: Yes, “by and by” will soon be now, And God will wipe each tearstained brow; The Lamb shall feed them from the throne, To living fountains lead His own. By and by, yes, by and by, By and by, yes, by and by; The Lamb shall feed them from the throne, To living fountains lead His own.
Verse 4: O verdant fields! O shining shore!The Lamb of God spreads wide the door; Ah, golden city, surely I Shall see thy glories “by and by.” By and by, yes, by and by, By and by, yes, by and by; Ah, golden city! surely I Shall see thy glories “by and by.”
