For the [C]Father waits [F]over the wa[C]y
To prepare us a dwe[G]lling place th[C]ere.
In the sw[C]eet by and [G]by,
We shall m[G7]eet on that beautiful sho[C]re;
In the sw[C7]eet by and [F]by,
We shall m[C]eet on that bea[G]utiful sho[C]re.
We shall s[C]ing on that b[F]eautiful sho[C]re
The melodious songs of the bl[G]essed;
And our sp[C]irits shall s[F]orrow no mo[C]re,
Not a sigh for the bl[G]essing of r[C]est.

To our b[C]ountiful F[F]ather ab[C]ove,
We will offer our tribute of pra[G]ise
For the gl[C]orious g[F]ift of His l[C]ove
And the blessings that h[G]allow our d[C]ays.
