Unclouded Day
Rev. J.K. Alwood (1828-1909)
arr. Shawn Kirchner (b. 1970)
O they tell me of a home far beyond the skies,
They tell me of a home far away,
And they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise
O they tell me of an unclouded day.
O the land of cloudless day
O the land of an unclouded sky,
O they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise
O they tell me of an unclouded day.
O they tell me of a home where my friends have gone,
They tell me of that land far away,
Where the tree of life in eternal bloom
Sheds its fragrance through the unclouded day.
O the land of cloudless day
O the land of an unclouded sky,
O they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise
O they tell me of an unclouded day.
O they tell me of a King in His beauty there,
They tell me that mine eyes shall behold
Where He sits on the throne that is whiter than snow
In the city that is made of gold!
O the land of cloudless day
O the land of an unclouded sky,
O they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise
O they tell me of an unclouded day.
“Unclouded Day” was performed by the Houston Chamber Choir at their 2017-2018 season’s “This American Voice.”
