The Unclouded Day is one a number of wonderful acoustic recordings released on the YouTube page of Covenant Presbyterian Church, Nashville.
Featured on this track are Bethany Carson, guitar/vocals; Russ Carson, banjo; and Nate Burie, mandolin.
There is an additional verse of J.K. Alwood’s lyrics that are not included in this rendition, but they deserve to be noted.
O they tell me of a home where my friends have gone,
O they tell me of that land far away,
Where the tree of life in eternal bloom
Sheds its fragrance through the uncloudy day.
The lyrics:
1.
Oh, they tell me of a home far beyond the skies,
Oh, they tell me of a home far away;
Oh, they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise,
Oh, they tell me of an unclouded day.
Chorus.
Oh, the land of cloudless day,
Oh, the land of an unclouded sky,
Oh, they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise,
Oh, they tell me of an unclouded day.
2.
Oh, they tell me of a King in His beauty there,
And they tell me that mine eyes shall behold
Where He sits on the throne that is whiter than snow,
In the city that is made of gold.
Chorus.
3.
Oh, they tell me that He smiles on His children there,
And His smile drives their sorrows all away;
And they tell me that no tears ever fall again
In that lovely land of unclouded day.
Chorus.
