Is Not This The Land Of Beulah

G                       C                G        D         G
 I am dwelling on the mountain, where the golden sunlight gleams
G                           C            G        D         G
 O’er a land whose wondrous beauty far exceeds my fondest dreams;
D          G       C        G      D     G        C           G
 Where the air is pure, ethereal, laden with the breath of flow’rs,
G                         C                    G    D       G
 They are blooming by the fountain, ’Neath the amaranthine bow’rs

CHORUS
G                 C       G                       C        G
 Is not this the land of Beulah? Blessed, blessed land of light,
G                        C                G        D       G
 Where the flowers bloom forever, And the sun is always bright!


VERSE 2
G                       C               G          D      G
I can see far down the mountain, where I wandered weary years,
G                       C              G         D         G
 Often hindered in my journey by the ghosts of doubts and fears;
D        G        C      G        D       G         C        G
 Broken vows and disappointments thickly sprinkled all the way,
G                       C             G       D     G
 But the Spirit led, unerring, to the land I hold today.


VERSE 3
G                      C                 G     D     G
I am drinking from the fountain, Where I ever would abide;
G                        C                G      D     G
 For I’ve tasted life’s pure river, And my soul is satisfied;
D          G          C          G          D       G     C        G
 There’s no thirsting for life’s pleasures, Nor adorning, rich and gay,
G                        C                  G      D     G
 For I’ve found a richer treasure, One that fadeth not away.


VERSE 4
G                     C              G       D       G
Tell me not of heavy crosses, Nor of burdens hard to bear,
G                          C                   G       D       G
 For I’ve found this great salvation makes each burden light appear;
D       G       C      G      D      G       C       G
 And I love to follow Jesus, gladly counting all but dross,
G                     C               G        D     G
 Worldly honors all forsaking for the glory of the cross.
