On the sunny banks of sweet deliverance Happy freedom land my immortal home I'm going there to live when life is over On the sunny banks of my home sweet home There's a land where death can never enter No lonely graves on the hills of God I walk by waters clear and peaceful Where wickedness shall never trod There's a valley green where the warm winds whisper And the master smiles as his children play All sorrow's gone and my burden's lifted For God Himself wipes the tears away
