He went to sleep one night
Never to awake again
But everything was all right
Between him and God
He awoke in Heaven's courtyard
Free from pain within
The angels gathered around him
And took him by the hand
Now I close my eyes at night
And try to imagine
That city of brilliant light
Waiting for me
But my mind cannot conceive
So I'll continue to dream
Till I'm transported there
Then I will be
Serenaded by angels, up to the throne
Serenaded by angels, finally at home
Surrounded by praises, to the King
Welcome to Paradise, the angels did sing
Serenaded by angels, up to the throne
Serenaded by angels, finally at home
Surrounded by praises, to the King
Welcome to Paradise, the angels did sing
Welcome to paradise, the angels did sing
