Just Around The Corner

You can hear the songbirds singing
And you watch the clouds roll by
Then you’re walking in the valley
As the sun shines in a clear blue sky
You’re welcoming your loved ones
And you can’t believe your eyes
Yes, this earthly Paradise
Was just around the corner

There’s a house down in the valley
And a house high on the hill
There is singing by the river
As the water flows and turns the mill
The golden fields are waiting
Let the harvesting begin
Once the world we’re living in
Was just around the corner

It’s great to share with friends who care
The things that we looked forward to
Now ev’ry tear has disappeared
The world is young, and life is new

There’s the sound of happy voices
And the scent of new mown hay
Now you’re calling to your loved ones
As you start another perfect day
Then we thank our God, Jehovah
For his tender loving care
Yes, the blessings we all share
Were just around the corner

And every day I smile and say
How good to see your happy face!
ʹCause once, it seemed, I only dreamed
That you’d be in my warm embrace

Waiting ʹround the corner
Is a world I long to see
It’s a promise from Jehovah
It’s a guaranteed reality
And it’s hard to get downhearted
When I think of what’s in store
It’s the day I’m waiting for
And it’s just around the corner
