I've heard about it
And I believe it
It's far beyond
What my mind could ever tell me
Not a fairy tale
That leaves me an empty well
But it's so real
That my heart won't stop rejoicing
There is a place I'm going
Far away far above the blue
Where time won't really matter
And there's happiness forever and forever.

Heaven
There will be joy up in the sky
Heaven
Wave all your sorrows good-bye
Heaven
I'll see my Jesus over there
Heaven
There will be joy in the sky.

We've sung about it
That great city
And it's a story
That's never lost its power
New Jerusalem
Oh the faithful lamb
I am waiting for you
Just any hour
There is a place I'm going
Far away far above the blue
Where time won't matter
And there's happiness forever and forever
