Far away the noise of strife upon my ear

Far away the noise of strife upon my ear

1

Far away the noise of strife upon my ear is falling,
Then I know the sins of earth beset on every hand;
Doubt and fear and things of earth in vain to me are calling,
None of these shall move me from Beulah Land.

I’m living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky,
I’m drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry;
O yes, I’m feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,
For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.

2

Far below the storm of doubt upon the world is beating,
Sons of men in battle long the enemy withstand;
Safe am I within the castle of God’s word retreating,
Nothing then can reach me, ’tis Beulah Land.

3

Let the stormy breezes blow, their cry cannot alarm me,
I am safely sheltered here, protected by God’s hand;
Here the sun is always shining, here there’s naught can harm me,
I am safe forever in Beulah Land.

4

Viewing here the works of God, I sink in contemplation,
Hearing now His blessed voice, I see the way is planned;
Dwelling in the spirit, here I learn of full salvation,
Gladly will I tarry in Beulah Land.

Beulah means Married in Hebrew (cf. Isaiah 62:4)

Revised version:

1. Once I served as slave in Egypt, troubles faced unceasing,

By sin burdened oft in conscience, with no rest at hand,

How I yearned less bricks to burn, but burdens kept increasing—

Sad, I'd never heard of the beauteous land.

Chorus:

I've scaled the lofty mountain, as the sun shines bright on me;

I'm drinking at the fountain that flows unceasingly.

What joy! What riches! Milk and honey, grace as oil abundantly!

What joy! I'm dwelling in God's Good Land.

2. Praise to the Passover Lamb; praise for His blood's redemption!

Baptized, freed from Egypt, in the wilderness to stand;

Wand'ring oft in circles, sometimes tempted, sometimes strengthened,

I lacked faith to enter the glorious land.

3. Christ my Lord has raised me to the heavens, with Him seated;

Pow'rs in air He's vanquished; Satan has no rest or stand!

In the name of Jesus, Hades and its pow'rs retreated;

There is total vict'ry in God's Good Land!

4. Here is joy none can exceed, and peace beyond all measure,

Glad communion, love most sweet, and hymns on every hand!

No more sorrow, lonely feeling—only rest and pleasure,

Hallelujah! This is the glorious land!

Beulah means married in Hebrew.

Isaiah 62:4 And it will no longer be said to you, Forsaken! Nor to your land will it be said any longer, Desolate! But you will be called, My delight is in her, And your land, Married; For Jehovah delights in you, And your land will be married.
