"The Wonderful City" lyrics
I'm waiting watching and longing that beautiful sight to behold
When I shall awake some bright morning in that city with streets of pure gold
My Savior has gone to prepare it for all who accepts His grace
And that's why I know I'll be welcome to a home in that beautiful place
When I reach my home in that city shall I find you waiting up there
With the saints to have gone before us to that beautiful home so fair
My whole heart is set upon heaven where my Savior's face I shall see
And live in the light of His glory throughout all eternity
He bid us to work in His vineyard to toil for Him early and late
What a glorious reward for our labor to enter that beautiful gate
When I reach my home in that city shall I find you waiting up there
With the saints to have gone before us to that beautiful home so fair
My whole heart is set upon heaven where my Savior's face I shall see
And live in the light of His glory throughout all eternity
When I shall awake some bright morning in that city with streets of pure gold
My Savior has gone to prepare it for all who accepts His grace
And that's why I know I'll be welcome to a home in that beautiful place
When I reach my home in that city shall I find you waiting up there
With the saints to have gone before us to that beautiful home so fair
My whole heart is set upon heaven where my Savior's face I shall see
And live in the light of His glory throughout all eternity
He bid us to work in His vineyard to toil for Him early and late
What a glorious reward for our labor to enter that beautiful gate
When I reach my home in that city shall I find you waiting up there
With the saints to have gone before us to that beautiful home so fair
My whole heart is set upon heaven where my Savior's face I shall see
And live in the light of His glory throughout all eternity
