[Verse 1]
GSometimes I Chear strange Gmusic,
Like Cnone e’er heard beGfore,
GCome Dfloating Csoftly Gearthward
GAs Cthro’ Heav’n’s open Ddoor:
It Gseems like Cangel Gvoices,
In Cstrains of joy and Glove,
GThat swell the Cmighty Gchorus
CA - Dround the throne aGbove.
[Refrain]
GO Dsweet, celestial CmuGsic,
Heard Dfrom a land aD7far—
The Gsong of CHeav’n and GHomeland,
CThro’ Gdoors DGod leaves D7a - Gjar!
[Verse 2]
GNow soft, and Clow, and Grestful,
It Cfloods my soul with Gpeace,
GAs Dif God’s CbeneGdiction
GBade Call earth’s troubles Dcease.
Then, Ggrander Cthan the Gvoices
Of Cwind, and wave, and Gsea—
GIt fills the Cdome of GHeaven
CWith Dglorious harGmony.
[Refrain]
GO Dsweet, celestial CmuGsic,
Heard Dfrom a land aD7far—
The Gsong of CHeav’n and GHomeland,
CThro’ Gdoors DGod leaves D7a - Gjar!
[Verse 3]
GThis music Chaunts me Gever,
Like Csomething heard in Gdreams—
GIt Dseems to Ccatch the Gcadence
GOf Cheav’nly winds and Dstreams.
My Gheart is Cfilled with Grapture,
To Cthink, some day to Gcome,
GI’ll sing it Cwith the Gangels—
CThe Dsong of Heav’n and Ghome.
[Refrain]
GO Dsweet, celestial CmuGsic,
Heard Dfrom a land aD7far—
The Gsong of CHeav’n and GHomeland,
CThro’ Gdoors DGod leaves D7a - Gjar!
