Paradise Valley Lyrics

The Seldom Scene Paradise Valley Lyrics

This is an old hymn arranged for bluegrass. It's in 3/4 (waltz)
As we travel through life with its trouble and strife
I've a glorious hope to seat to give cheer on the way
Soon this life will be o'er and I'll rest on that shore
Where the night has been turned into day
Chorus:
Up in paradise valley (up in the beautiful paradise valley)
By the side of the river of life (of the river of life)
Up in paradise valley (up in the valley, the wonderful valley)
We'll be free from all pain and all strife (from all pain and all strife)
There we'll live in the garden (there we shall live in the rose tinted garden)
'Neath the shade of the evergreen tree (of the evergreen tree)
How I long for the paradise valley (for the paradise valley)
Where the beauty of heaven I'll see (beauty of heaven I'll see)
Solo: use chorus chords
verse 2:
As I roam the hillside, oh I list to the tide,
As I pluck the sweet flowers that grow in the dale;
A faint picture is there of a land bright and fair
Where perennial flowers ne'er fail.
Up in paradise valley (up in the beautiful paradise valley)
By the side of the river of life (of the river of life)
Up in paradise valley (up in the valley, the wonderful valley)
We'll be free from all pain and all strife (from all pain and all strife)
There we'll live in the garden (there we shall live in the rose tinted garden)
'Neath the shade of the evergreen tree (of the evergreen tree)
How I long for the paradise valley (for the paradise valley)
Where the beauty of heaven I'll see (beauty of heaven I'll see)
