In a land beyond sight or conceiving	A
In a land where no blight is no wrong	B
No darkness no graves and no grieving	A
There lies the great ocean of song	B
And its waves oh its waves unbeholden	C
By any save gods and their kind	D
Are not blue are not green but are golden	C
Like moonlight and sunlight combined	D
	-
It was whispered to me that their waters	E
Were made from the gathered up tears	F
That were wept by the sons and the daughters	E
Of long vanished eras and spheres	G
Like white sands of heaven the spray is	H
That falls all the happy day long	B
And whoever it touches straightway is	H
Made glad with the spirit of song	B
	-
Up up to the clouds where their hoary	I
Crowned heads melt away in the skies	J
The beautiful mountains of glory	I
Each side of the song ocean rise	J
Here day is one splendour of sky light	K
Of God's light with beauty replete	L
Here night is not night but is twilight	K
Pervading enfolding and sweet	L
	-
Bright birds from all climes and all regions	M
That sing the whole glad summer long	B
Are dumb till they flock here in legions	M
And lave in the ocean of song	B
It is here that the four winds of heaven	C
The winds that do sing and rejoice	N
It is here they first came and were given	C
The secret of sound and a voice	N
	-
Far down along beautiful beeches	N
By night and by glorious day	O
The throng of the gifted ones reaches	N
Their foreheads made white with the spray	O
And a few of the sons and the daughters	N
Of this kingdom cloud hidden from sight	K
Go down in the wonderful waters	N
And bathe in those billows of light	K
	-
And their souls evermore are like fountains	N
And liquid and lucent and strong	B
High over the tops of the mountains	N
Gush up the sweet billows of song	B
No drouth time of waters can dry them	P
Whoever has bathed in that sea	N
All dangers all deaths they defy them	P
And are gladder than gods are with glee	N
