What will it matter by and by,
What will it matter by and by,
Whether my crosses were heavy or light,
Whether my pathway was clouded or bright,
When I shall walk with the ransomed
in white,
Safe in that beautiful land?
 What
will it matter by and by,
What will it matter by and by,
Whether my trials
were many or few,
Whether my friends were unfaithful or true,
When my
Redeemer in glory I view,
Safe in that beautiful land?
What
will it matter by and by,
What will it matter by and by,
Whether the waters
were bitter or sweet,
Murmuring gently or sad at my feet,
When the departed
with rapture I meet,
Safe in that beautiful land?
What
will it matter by and by,
What will it matter by and by,
Whether I pass
with the morning away,
Whether at noontide or closing of day,
When in
the mountain of Zion I stray,
Safe in that beautiful land?

in the LORD shall be safe.
