Far Away the Noise of Strife
"Beulah for the Lord delighteth in thee." - Isa 62:4
VERSE 1
Far away the noise of strife upon my ear is falling,
Then I know the sins of earth be set on ev'ry hand:
Doubts and fear and things of earth in vain to me are calling,
None of these shall move me from Beulah Land.
CHORUS
I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky,
I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry,
Oh, yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,
For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.
VERSE 2
Far below the storm of doubt upon the world is beating,
Sons of men in battle long the enemy withstand;
Safe am I within the castle of God's word retreating;
Nothing then can reach me 'Tis Beulah Land.
CHORUS
I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky,
I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry,
Oh, yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,
For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.
VERSE 3
Let the stormy breezes blow, their cry cannot alarm me,
I am safely sheltered here protected by God's hand;
Here the sun is always shining, here there's naught can harm me,
I am safe for ever in Beulah Land.
CHORUS
I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky,
I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry,
Oh, yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,
For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.
VERSE 4
Viewing here the works of God, I sink in contemplation,
Hearing now His blessed voice, I see the way is planned:
Dwelling in the spirit, here I learn of full salvation,
Gladly will I tarry in Beulah Land.
CHORUS
I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky,
I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry,
Oh, yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,
For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.
