I cannot remember from whom I got this copy, so I cannot vouch for its accuracy:
Farthest Field (David Dodson)
There is a land high on a hill where I am going There is a voice that calls to me The air is sweet, the grasses wave The wind is blowing away up in the farthest field
REFRAIN: Oh walk with me and we will see the mystery revealed When one day we wend our way up to the farthest field
The sun will rise, the sun will set Across the mountains and we will live with beauty there The fragrant flowers the days and hours Will not be counted and peaceful songs will fill the air
I know one day I'll leave my home Here in the valley and climb up to that field so fair And when I'm called and counted in That final tally I know that I will see you there
Oh my dear friends I truly love To hear your voices lifted up in radiant song Though through the years we all have made our separate choices We've ended here where we belong.
