JSC SWEET BY AND BY

A newly departed saint (depicted by the flugel horn) has a lot of stories to tell as he joins up with former companions in this light-hearted look at an old gospel favorite. The music seeks to portray not only the sweet fellowship of that reunion but also the awesome majesty of Heavenly communion:

• 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.
