Past the Curtain of Time

There's a curtain that's drawn between earth and heaven,

And just beyond lies a beautiful clime

Where the evils of this life no longer can touch me;

Lord, let me look past the curtain of time.

Lord, let me look past beyond the curtain of sorrows and fear,

Let me view that sunny bright clime;

It would strengthen my faith and would banish all fear;

Lord, let me look past the curtain of time.

I'm helpless, alone, and I want to see Jesus,

And hear the sweet harbor bells chime.

Where my friends and dear loved ones are waiting for me;

Lord, let me look past the curtain of time.

I'm so homesick and blue, and I want to see Jesus,

I would like to hear those sweet harbor bells chime;

It would brighten my path and would vanish all fear;

Lord, let me look past the curtain of time.
