- 1Far away the noise of strife upon my ear is falling,Then I know the sins of earth beset on ev‘ry hand;Doubt and fear and things of earth in vain to me are calling,None of these shall move me from Beulah Land.I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky. (Praise God!)I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry;O yes, I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.
- 2Far 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.I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky. (Praise God!)I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry;O yes, I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.
- 3Let 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 forever in Beulah Land.I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky. (Praise God!)I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry;O yes, I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.
- 4Viewing here the works of God,I sink in contemplation,Hearing now His blessed voice,I see the way He planned;Dwelling in the Spirit, hereI learn of full salvation,Gladly I will tarry in Beulah Land.I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky. (Praise God!)I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry;O yes, I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.
