*LYRICS - Sweet Beulah Land* ------------ I'm kind of homesick for a country To which I've never been before No sad goodbyes will there be spoken For time won't matter anymore Beulah Land, I'm longing for you And someday on thee I'll stand And there my home shall be eternal Beulah Land, sweet Beulah Land I'm looking now across that river To where my faith is gonna end in sight A few more days I'll wait in labor And then I'll take my heavenly flight Beulah Land, I'm longing for you And someday on thee I'll stand And there my home shall be eternal Beulah Land, sweet Beulah Land Beulah Land, sweet Beulah Land Turn on captions (CC) to see the captions on screen Album: Homesick For A Country

The best version of Beulah Land I've ever heard.

My grandpa sang this to his father as he was dying, my grandma sang it to my grandpa as he died Monday 10.25.2021. I'd never heard it before, but it was my grandpa's favorite. Thank you for helping me to hear the song He loved so much.

Heard this song at one of The Petersens’ performances in Branson, MO. Oh how I cried! This song made me think of my beloved late grandparents whom I lost in 2019. Thank you so much for such a beautiful performance of this wonderful song!

One of my favorite songs and you all sing it beautifully

Divine! Yes I'm homesick too.

This song was one of my mother's favorites. She died in July of 2021 after a long battle with covid. There are no words to describe how much I miss her. Life has changed for me and not for the better. I love the Lord and I know I belong to Him but I am so bitter over my mother's passing that I cant see or feel anything else. You guys sang it beautifully.

When I die, if I hear The Petersens singing I'll know I'm going in the right direction because this has to be the soundtrack in heaven.

Beautiful , this song makes me cry

Hello I am from Russia and I am in love with your voices I do not even know what is sung in the songs but this is not necessary because I hear you with my soul thank you for bringing light and good to this world and remind us that we are all small before something higher I wish everyone peace and good

Эта красивая песня о небесах. С нетерпением ждет пересечения реки на небеса, чтобы быть с Иисусом. Сладкая земля Беула ..... там моя вечная вечность. (This beautiful song is about Heaven. It is looking forward to crossing the river to Heaven to be with Jesus. Sweet Beulah Land.....there my own shall be eternal). I don't speak Russian.....I just used Google translate.

I was looking for a rendition of this song to send to a friend. I listened to Jamey Johnson and Shenandoah and they were musically very good. Allison Kraus's voice is always beautiful. But this one ... This one gave me goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes. I have no idea why. Maybe it was the pretty gal singing. Maybe it was the lovely harmonies. I think it was because they understand, above the other singers, what they are actually singing about and the Spirit was in it. Thank you.

My cousin sang this Saturday at our uncle’s funeral. She has a beautiful voice I wanted to hear it again

I had fallen into sin and there was a barrier of shame between me and my maker. I repented, and going forward decided to saturate myself in God’s word and music. Since then I’ve had His word in my ear, and because of your great music, His songs in my heart. You’ll never know how much these songs mean to me. They are an effective treatment for many an aching soul. Keep doing exactly what you’re doing.

That was worthy of a Grammy

I was an Ag Teacher/ FFA advisor in Alabama for 37 years until I retired in 2012. I had several outstanding String bands and Quartets . I have probably heard Beulah Land 500 times at our State Convention but never as well as you do it . Outstanding group I enjoy your music very much.

Never really paid attention to the words of this song until now! What wonderful hope we have in Jesus.

Just bumped into this, never heard before, but oh, it's just amazing - wonderful voices, close harmony, woooow ! goosebumps

Used this rendition at my mother-in-laws recent funeral. So beautiful.

Lovely

My gosh, this is just stunningly beautiful. I was moved to tears. The lead vocal was powerful, and what great support from the harmony and instruments. Wow!

One of my faves. Ellen's wonderful rendition is so marvelously backed by her super bandmates. This number makes me feel like I already have one foot in Paradise.

LIstening to Ellen sing this song in harmony with her family breaks my heart a little bit from the beauty of it.

There is such peace in their version of this song.

This is an absolutely beautiful version of this song

Oh my! Fabulous…

My sweet Mike. You loved this song. Im so glad you are there at home now. Our love is forever and i will see you when i get there.

Hi guys and gals. I am 55 years old now but when I was in the USAF at the dreaded Minot AFB, which I still love, I was volunteered by the hospital commander to sing at an Officers Club function. My commander played his 1950's Gibson and I sang "Annie's Song" By John Denver. I blew the words to the second verse but I decided very quickly to make a comedic effort. When I finished the song we received a standing ovation. I was sent to Wilford Hall in San Antonio TX after my time in Minot. I became very ill and it was determined I had developed asthma and severe allergies. I guess a lot of people do that when they go to Texas for an extended tour. I did some singing when I could but my airways were injured enough to cause difficulty singing. I was discharged after almost 16 years of one form of military service or another. I began my career as an airman Basic and ended it as a captain. While in college studying nursing I was in the US Army Reserves and stationed in UAE during Desert Storm/Shield. Unlike my brothers I never experienced combat but my career did result in physical and emotional injuries, which have ended my ability to function as a nurse. For 5 years (Until Covid 19) I was acquiring and giving stringed instruments to children in my small community. I would teach them what I could and when I didn't know something we learned together. I would also sing and play for them on demand. I am now able to sing again albeit a little differently but with some strength. I also have acquired a small digital recording device, which will allow me to record multiple tracks. My goal for now is to develop a small amount screen presence so I can show the children (After Covid) how easy it is to share themselves safely with the world. You have inspired me to learn some of the Bluegrass techniques you have developed for yourselves. Your Gospel efforts are beautiful and while I cannot go to church due to the use of colognes and perfumes by the rest of the congregation I still celebrate the words in my own way. I have always believed in playing for the self and then to share. This way you learn who your music is for. I thank you for reminding me of a way to learn that is rewarding for myself and those around me.

If the angels in heaven sing like this I might spend most of eternity with tears in my eyes.

I always come back to this song. Played this at my mother's funeral in March. Absolute best version, bar none, that I've ever heard. Matt's harmony, Emmet's dobro, Ellen's voice and rest of family makes this a 99.999999999999999999999% perfect song. Thank you and God Bless.

seems to be a theme, but also used this at my mother's funeral this past February. My grandmothers name actually was Beulah, that's what sort of led me to even finding this and discovering this beautiful song, and the Peterson's wonderful music and family as well!

Truly one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard.

May God bless you for boldly proclaiming his gospel in your songs.

Such a beautiful song, & beautifully sang.

God: How much talent and beauty do you want in your family? Momma Petersen: Yes.

Thanks guys. You guys be safe. God bless

Love the double bass clarity.

I have listened to this song over and over again........ thinking of my mother name Beulah...... I love you mom and I miss you so much......

A re-affirmation of faith. Thank you, family.

Jeez, hadn’t heard this in forever. This is one of those songs I remember where I last heard it, even though it was over 5 years ago now. I was 16, and playing guitar for a nursing home when one of the gentlemen living there asked to play this song with us. Bob the leader nodded his head, and began picking a soft melody while I watched his fingers to make a rhythm. Hearing all the members of the nursing home sing along in the chorus is one thing I’ll never forget, nor the work Mr. Bob had put into me and helping me with music. God, I wish I could go back....
