Next to me, there's an angel
He lifts me up on mountains high
When my world falls to pieces
He's always there to dry my eyes
Beyond the tears, I'll be with Jesus
Standing near the one I adore
Beyond the tears, I will press forward
'Cause peace will come beyond the tears
When it seems tribulation
Follows me from door to door
But I know God teaches patience
One day soon, I'll be restored, yes, I will
Beyond the tears, I'll be with Jesus
Standing near the one I adore
Beyond the tears, I will press forward
'Cause peace will come beyond the tears
If your heart is full of sorrow
If you hurt most every day
Bear in mind that your homeland
Is above the clouds faraway
Beyond the tears, I'll be with Jesus
Standing near the one I adore
Beyond the tears, I will press forward, yes, I will
'Cause peace will come beyond the tears
'Cause peace will come beyond the tears
