Burl Ives - When we all get to heaven lyrics

Burl Ives - When we all get to heaven

1. Sing the wondrous love of Jesus;

sing his mercy and his grace.

In the mansions bright and blessed

he'll prepare for us a place.

Refrain:

When we all get to heaven,

what a day of rejoicing that will be!

When we all see Jesus,

we'll sing and shout the victory!

2. While we walk the pilgrim pathway,

clouds will overspread the sky;

but when traveling days are over,

not a shadow, not a sigh.

(Refrain)

3. Let us then be true and faithful,

trusting, serving every day;

just one glimpse of him in glory

will the toils of life repay.

(Refrain>

4. Onward to the prize before us!

Soon his beauty we'll behold;

soon the pearly gates will open;

we shall tread the streets of gold.

(Refrain)
