00:12 You can hear the songbirds singing, And you watch the clouds roll by.
00:20 Then you’re walking in the valley As the sun shines in a clear blue sky.
00:28 You’re welcoming your loved ones, And you can’t believe your eyes.
00:36 Yes, this earthly Paradise Was just around the corner.
00:48 There’s a house down in the valley And a house high on the hill.
00:56 There is singing by the river As the water flows and turns the mill.
01:05 The golden fields are waiting. Let the harvesting begin.
01:13 Once the world we’re living in Was just around the corner.
01:20 It’s great to share with friends who care The things that we looked forward to.
01:28 Now every tear has disappeared. The world is young, and life is new.
01:36 There’s the sound of happy voices And the scent of new mown hay.
01:44 Now you’re calling to your loved ones As you start another perfect day.
01:52 Then we thank our God, Jehovah, For his tender loving care.
02:00 Yes, the blessings we all share Were just around the corner.
02:08 And evʹry day I smile and say, “How good to see your happy face!”
02:16 ʹCause once, it seemed, I only dreamed That you’d be in my warm embrace.
02:25 Waiting ʹround the corner Is a world I long to see.
02:32 It’s a promise from Jehovah. It’s a guaranteed reality.
02:40 And it’s hard to get downhearted When I think of what’s in store.
02:48 It’s the day I’m waiting for, And it’s just around the corner.
