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
