When we leave this lowland
We will cross the Jordan
Past the chilly torrent (torrent)
Heaven's joy awaits

Just beyond the blue horizon (Oh horizon)
Just above the starry sky (starry blue sky)
Far above this land of sorrow (I'll go a)
Way above each fear and sigh (every sigh)
Just a few more miles before us (before us)
Just a little while to wait (patiently wait)
Soon we'll sing redemption's chorus (I'm going)
Heaven's joy awaits (Heaven awaits)

Heaven's breeze is blowing
Gently to me calling (calling)
I will soon be going (going)
Through the pearly gates
(Repeat chorus 2 times)
