I am dwelling on the mountain,
Where the golden sunlight gleams
Oâer a land whose wondrous beauty
Far exceeds my fondest dreams
Where the air is pure, ethereal,
Laden with the breath of flowârs,
They are blooming by the fountain,
'Neath the amaranthine bowârs.
Is not this the land of Beulah?
Blessed, blessed land of light,
Where the flowers bloom forever,
And the sun is always bright!
I can see far down the mountain,
Where I wandered weary years,
Often hindered in my journey
By the ghosts of doubts and fears;
Broken vows and disappointments
Thickly sprinkled all the way,
But the Spirit led, unerring,
To the land I hold today.
Is not this the land of Beulah?
Blessed, blessed land of light,
Where the flowers bloom forever,
And the sun is always bright!
I am drinking at the fountain,
Where I ever would abide;
For Iâve tasted lifeâs pure river,
And my soul is satisfied;
Thereâs no thirsting for lifeâs pleasures,
Nor adorning, rich and gay,
For Iâve found a richer treasure,
One that fadeth not away.
Is not this the land of Beulah?
Blessed, blessed land of light,
Where the flowers bloom forever,
And the sun is always bright!
Tell me not of heavy crosses,
Nor of burdens hard to bear,
For Iâve found this great salvation
Makes each burden light appear;
And I love to follow Jesus,
Gladly counting all but dross,
Worldly honors all forsaking
For the glory of the cross.
Is not this the land of Beulah?
Blessed, blessed land of light,
Where the flowers bloom forever,
And the sun is always bright!
Oh, the cross has wondrous glory!
Oft Iâve proved this to be true;
When Iâm in the way so narrow,
I can see a pathway through;
And how sweetly Jesus whispers:
âTake the cross, thou needâst not fear,
For Iâve tried the way before thee,â
And the glory lingers near
Is not this the land of Beulah?
Blessed, blessed land of light,
Where the flowers bloom forever,
And the sun is always bright!
