260 VALE OF BEULAH
[V1]
I am passing down the valley
that they say is so lone.
‘Tis to me the vale of Beulah,
‘tis a beautiful way,
But I find that all the pathway
is with flowers o’er grown,
For the Saviour walks beside me,
my companion all day.

Vale of Beulah, Vale of Beulah,
Thou art precious to me;
For the lovely of the promise,
In the distance I see.
Vale of Beulah, Vale of Beulah,
Thou art precious to me;
For the lovely of the promise,
In the distance I see.
[V2]
Not a shadow, not a shadow
ever darkens the way,
And the music, sweetly chanted
by the heavenly throng,
For a radiance of rare glory
shines upon it all day,
Floats in cadence down the valley,
and it cheers me along.

[V3]
So I journey with rejoicing
toward the city of light,
And I near the open portals
of the kingdom above,
While each day my joy is deeper,
and the path grows more bright,
For this highway leads to heaven,
to the kingdom of love.
