Just Around the Corner
You can hear the song birds 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 waters 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 every tear has disappeared the world is young and life is new
There’s the sound of happy voices and the scent of new mowed 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 we smile and say how good to see your happy face
Once it seem I only dreamed that you’d be in my warm embrace
Waiting around 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
