Lyrics

Verse 1
Sing the won­drous love of Je­sus,
Sing His mer­cy and His grace.
In the man­sions bright and bless­èd
He’ll pre­pare for us a place. (John 14:2-3)

Chorus
When we all get to Heav­en,
What a day of re­joic­ing that will be!
When we all see Je­sus, (Rev. 22:4, Ps. 17:15, I Cor. 13:12, I John 3:2)
We’ll sing and shout the vic­to­ry!

Verse 2
While we walk the pil­grim path­way, (Ps. 119:19, Heb. 11:13, I Pet. 2:11)
Clouds will ov­er­spread the sky;
But when tra­vel­ing days are ov­er,
Not a sha­dow, not a sigh. (Rev. 21:4)

Verse 3
Let us then be true and faith­ful, (Matt. 24:45-46, Matt. 25:21-23, I Cor. 4:2)
Trusting, serv­ing ev­ery day;
Just one glimpse of Him in glo­ry (John 17:24, Ps. 17:15, I Cor. 13:12, I John 3:2, Rev. 22:4)
Will the toils of life re­pay.

Verse 4
Onward to the prize be­fore us! (I Cor. 9:24-25, Phil. 3:13-14)
Soon His beau­ty we’ll be­hold; (Ps. 27:4, Isa. 33:17)
Soon the pear­ly gates will op­en;
We shall tread the streets of gold. (Rev. 21:21)
