“Unclouded Day” from Heavenly Home (text by Rev. J. K. Alwood, 1828-1909)
O they tell me of a home far beyond the skies,
They tell me of a home far away,
And they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise:
O they tell me of an unclouded day.

O the land of cloudless days,
O the land of an unclouded sky,
O they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise:
O they tell me of an unclouded day.

They tell me of a home where my friends have gone,
They tell me of a home far away,
Where the tree of life in eternal bloom
Sheds its fragrance through the unclouded day.

They tell me of a King in His beauty there,
They tell me that mine eyes shall behold
Where He sits on a throne that is bright as the sun
In the city that is made of gold.
