Soon this life will all be over |
|
And our pilgrimage will end |
|
Soon we'll take our heavenly journey |
|
Yeah, and be at home with friends again |
|
Heaven's gates are standing open |
|
Waiting for our entrance there |
|
Some sweet day we're going over |
|
And all the beauties there to share |
|
That's why |
|
I'm saying |
|
Just a little while to stay here |
|
Just a little while to wait |
|
Just a little while to labor |
|
In the path that's always straight |
|
Oh, just a little more of sorrow |
|
In this low and sinful state |
|
Then we'll enter heaven's portals |
|
Sweeping through those pearly gates |
|
Just a little while to stay here |
|
Just a little while to wait, oh |
|
Just a little while to labor |
|
In the path that's always straight |
|
Oh, just a little more of sorrow |
|
In this low and sinful state |
|
Then we'll enter heaven's portals |
|
Sweeping through the pearly gates |
