[Verse 1]

             G  Am  G/B  C      G    D  G
I'm kind of homesick    for a country
               Bm  Am   D    G   D
To which I've never   been before
           G   Am  G/B       C        G   D  G
No sad goodbyes       will there be spoken
                Bm   Am   D  G  C  G
And time won't matter   anymore


[Chorus 1]

D       G
Beulah Land, I'm longing for you
                            D
And someday, on thee I'll stand
          G                 B7  Em
Where my home shall be eter  -  nal
Em    D/F#   G            D     G   Eb
Beu - lah   Land, sweet Beulah Land


[Verse 2]

I'm looking now            across the river
           Cm  Bbm       Eb     Ab   Eb
Where my faith    shall end in sight
                Ab  Bbm  Ab/C      Db       Ab  Eb  Ab
There's just a few           more days to labor
            Cm  Bbm      Eb       Ab  Db  Ab
Then, I'll take     my heavenly flight


[Chorus 2]

Beulah Land, I'm longing for you
                            Eb
