• In The Land Beyond The Blue (1937)

In a far and distant village, dying at the close of day
'Twas a fair-haired boy who'd wandered far from home.

"Take this message to my mother when my work on earth is through.
Tell her that her boy will meet her, in the land beyond the blue."

In his hand he held a picture of the old home far away.
In the other 'twas a mother, old and gray.
While in accents low he whispered "She will know that I was true.
Tell her that her boy will meet her, in the land beyond the blue."

Tell my mother, I will meet her,
When my works of love and labor all are through.
Where the good of earth are gathered with the faithful and the true.
Tell her that her boy will meet her in the land beyond the blue.

"'Tis my last good night", he whispered. "Angels gather 'round my bed.
Soon with all my friends and loved ones I shall be.
Down the valley of the shadow, He will lead me safely through.
Tell her that her boy will meet her in the land beyond the blue."

To the old home came a message 'twas to mother from her boy
Alas, for her the message came too late.
For that day the angels called her to the faithful and the true
Tonight she dwells with Willie in the land beyond the blue.

Tell my mother, I will meet her
When my works of love and labor all are through.
Where the good of earth are gathered with the faithful and the true
Tell her that her boy will meet her in the land beyond the blue.
