BEAUTIFUL ISLE-J. S. Fearis
Beautiful Isle of Somewhere
(or Somewhere the Sun Is Shining)
}
Somewhere the sun is shining,
Somewhere the songbirds dwell;
Hush, then thy sad repining,
God lives, and all is well.
Somewhere the day is longer,
Somewhere the task is done;
Somewhere the heart is stronger,
Somewhere the guerdon won.
Somewhere the load is lifted,
Close by an open gate;
Somewhere the clouds are rifted,
Somewhere the angels wait.
Chorus Somewhere, Somewhere,
Beautiful Isle of Somewhere!
Land of the true, where we live anew,
Beautiful Isle of Somewhere!
