Heaven Eternal for Me Lyrics

CHORUS
Will be Heaven sweet Heaven eternal for me
Up in Heaven forever in glory I'll be
Jesus will stand and hold out His hand
Will be Heaven sweet Heaven eternal for me
The old folks have gone to their Heavenly home
and are resting in glory on high
tho until I go from earth here below
I will shed not a tear nor a sigh
I'll live for the love of Jesus above
and when my works done here below
I'll meet father there in Heaven so fair
where mother is waiting I know
TO CHORUS
In childhood one day I heard mother pray

and to Jesus she mentioned my name
while down on her knees she asked Him to please
keep me ever from sin and from shame
I'll keep the straightway I'll do what they say
both Jesus and mother so dear
and someday we'll meet on that golden street
will be Heaven sweet Heaven for me
