Verse 1
Since I was born I heard about this place
Where there is always sunshine and everyday is a Sunday
There will be no more rain no more skies that are gray
Oh, they tell me of an uncloudy day
Chorus 1
All my life Ive heard about this beautiful place
Its somewhere beyond the galaxy and outer space
Where the streets are gold as glass and sheer with transparency
Where we shout and sing His praise throughout eternity
Verse 2
As I grew old, I wondered bout this place
Will I ever get there; how much longer will I have to wait?
Then I felt a sensation from my head down to my face
On a Tuesday afternoon I felt my body change
Ive been raptured!
Chorus 2
All my life I dreamed about this beautiful place
And I cant believe my eyes I really see His face
Reunited with my loved ones walking hand in hand
And the Holy River intertwines with emerald sand
Chorus 3
"Oh, my God, the flowers sing!!!"
As pure white horses kneel down
For the King has made His entrance at the trumpets sound
As we sing His throne changes from blue to aqua-marine
And to shades of indigo unlike youve ever seen
Bridge
No more death, no more pain
Joy, everlasting Zion sings Holy, Holy, Holy
Oh, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
We have over come
