- 1There's a beautiful place called heaven,It is hidden above the bright blue,Where the good, who from earthties are riven,Live and love an eternity through.Above the bright blue, the beautiful blue,Jesus is waiting for me and for you;Heaven is there, not far from our sight,Beautiful city of light.
- 2This land of sweet rest awaits us,Some day it will break on our view,'Tis promised by Christ the Redeemer,To His followers faithful and true.Above the bright blue, the beautiful blue,Jesus is waiting for me and for you;Heaven is there, not far from our sight,Beautiful city of light.
- 3We know not when He shall call us,Whether soon, the glad summons shall be,But we know, when we pass o'er the river,The glory of Jesus we'll see.Above the bright blue, the beautiful blue,Jesus is waiting for me and for you;Heaven is there, not far from our sight,Beautiful city of light.
