Generally we like to have not only the link to the item, but the lyrics posted. This way it's HERE for later searchers, if the original site goes away.

So here it is-- now can you send me a tune of it in Noteworthy Composer (freeware version can be found online)?

ZION'S HILL

There awaits for me a glad tomorrow
Where the gates of pearl swing open wide
And when I have passed this spell of sorrow
I will camp upon the other side

CHO:
Someday beyond the reach of mortal kin
Someday God only knows just where or when
The wills of mortal life will all stand still
And I shall go dwell on Zion's Hill

Someday the storm clouds will be lifted
Beyond the shadow of the tomb
And with all the bells of Heaven ringing
And the angels singing "Home Sweet Home"
