Capo 4
Verse 1:
AmC
There is a land of pure de-light where saints im-mor-tal reigh;
FGDmFGAm
In-fin-ite day ex-cludes the night, and pleasures ban-ish pain.
AmC
There ever-last-ing spring a-bides, and ne-ver a with-'ring flower;
CFGDmFGAm
Death like a nar-row sea di-vides, this heav-'nly land from ours.

Chorus:
AmCGDmF
Could we but climb, where Mo-ses stood, and view the land-scape o'er;
FCGDmFG
Not Jor-dan's streams nor death's cold flood, should fright us from the shore.
Verse 2:
FC
Sweet fields be-yond the swell-ing flood , stand dressed in liv-ing green;
FGDmFFAm
So to the Jews old Can-aan stood, while Jor-dan rolled be-tween.
AmC
But tim-orous mor-tals start and shrink, to cross this nar-row sea;
FGDmFGAm
And lin-ger shiv-'ring on the brink, and fear to launch a-way.
Chorus:
AmCGDmF
Could we but climb, where Mo-ses stood, and view the land-scape o'er;
FCGDmFG
Not Jor-dan's streams nor death's cold flood, should fright us from the shore.
Bridge:
AmC
Oh could we make our doubts re-move, those gloom-y doubts that a-rise;
FGDmFGAm
And see the Can-aan that we love, with un-be-clouded eyes.
Chorus:
AmCGDmF
Could we but climb, where Mo-ses stood, and view the land-scape o'er;
FCGDmFGAm
Not Jor-dan's streams nor death's cold flood, should fright us from the shore.
4/4 time. Play first half of first verse open (just hit the chords and fill as necessary), then build it up
til the chorus. Bring it back down (still strumming in the 2nd verse and bridge). Dynamics are
huge in this song. Very heartfelt.
