Текст пісні
There's a city on high, far above the blue sky
A paradise I'm told
Such a wonderful place for the ransomed by grace
And none shall e'er grow old
Oh, that land of joy and wonderful beauty
Where I know my friends and loved ones await
Day by day I know I'm doing my duty
I can hardly wait to enter the gate
Seems I almost hear the welcome bell ringing
I'm just waiting for the trumpet to blow
How I long to join that wonderful singing
Lord, I'm ready now to go!
Now's the time to do right, morning, evening and night
For we'll be judged someday
There in Heaven above we shall sing of His love
While ages roll away
Oh, that land of joy and wonderful beauty
Where I know my friends and loved ones await
Day by day I know I'm doing my duty
I can hardly wait to enter the gate
Seems I almost hear the welcome bell ringing
I'm just waiting for the trumpet to blow
How I long to join that wonderful singing
Lord, I'm ready now to go!
How I long to join that wonderful singing
Lord, I'm ready now to go!
