In the Sweet By and By

A Christian hymn with lyrics by Sanford F. Bennett, 1868 and music by Joseph P. Webster.

 

1. There’s a land that is fairer than day,For the Father waits over the way
   • Refrain:
     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.
2. To prepare us a dwelling place there.
3. And by faith we can see it afar;
4. We shall sing on that beautiful shoreAnd our spirits shall sorrow no more,
5. Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
6. The melodious songs of the blessed;
7. To our bountiful Father above,For the glorious gift of His love
8. And the blessings that hallow our days.
9. We will offer our tribute of praise

Mr. Web­ster, like many mu­si­cians, was of an ex­ceed­ing­ly ner­vous and sens­i­tive na­ture, and sub­ject to per­i­ods of de­pres­sion, in which he looked up­on the dark side of all things in life.

 

I had learned his pe­cul­i­ar­i­ties so well that on meet­ing him I could tell at a glance if he was mel­an­cho­ly, and had found that I could rouse him up by giv­ing him a new song to work on.

 

He came in­to my place of bus­i­ness [in Elk­horn, Wis­con­sin], walked down to the stove, and turned his back on me with­out speak­ing. I was at my desk. Turning to him, I said, Web­ster, what is the mat­ter now? It’s no mat­ter, he re­plied, it will be all right by and by.

 

The idea of the hymn came me like a flash of sun­light, and I re­plied, The Sweet By and By! Why would not that make a good hymn? May­be it would, he said in­dif­fer­ent­ly.

 

Turn­ing to my desk I penned the words of the hymn as fast as I could write. I hand­ed the words to Web­ster. As he read his eyes kin­dled, and step­ping to the desk he be­gan writ­ing the notes.

 

Tak­ing his vi­o­lin, he played the me­lo­dy and then jot­ted down the notes of the cho­rus. It was not ov­er thir­ty min­utes from the time I took my pen to write the words be­fore two friends with Web­ster and my­self were sing­ing the hymn.

In the Sweet By and By 606장

해보다 더 밝은 저 천국

그 성은 해나 달의 비침이 쓸 데 없으니 - ​계 21:23

 

 

There's a land that is fairer than day

해 보다 더 밝은 저 천국

And by faith we can see it apart

믿음만 가지고 가겠네

For the father waits over the way

믿는 자 위하여 있을 곳

To prepare us a dwelling place there

우리 주 예비해 두셨네

In the sweet by and by

며칠 후 며칠 후

We shall meet on that beautiful shore

요단 강 건너 가 만나리

In the sweet by and by

며칠 후 며칠 후

We shall meet on that beautiful shore

요단강 건너 가 만나리

 

We shall sing on that beau-ti-ful shore

찬란한 주의 빛 있으니

The me-lo-di-ous songs of the blest,

거기는 어두움 없도다

And our spir-its shall sor-row no more,

우리들 거기서 만날 때

Not a sigh for the bless-ing of rest.

기쁜 낯 서로가 대하리

 

We shall meet those we lost long a-go

이 세상 작별한 성도들

When we rise to re-ceive our re-ward,

하늘에 올라가 만날 때

Tears of part-ing no long-er to know,

인간의 괴롬이 끝나고

Nei-ther grief, on-ly joy in the Lord.

이별의 눈물이 없겠네

 

To our boun-ti-ful Fa-ther a-bove

광명한 하늘에 계신 주

We will of-fer the trib-ute of praise,

우리도 모시고 살겠네

For the glo-ri-ous gift of His love,

성도들 즐거운 노래로

And the bless-ings that hal-low our days.

영광을 주 앞에 돌리리
