Somewhere there is a light that shines beyond imagination In the land of paradise, God's heavenly creation No evil fascinations there, just innocence and goodness No suffering or pain to bear, but contented joy and gladness Someday I'm gonna leave this world of darkness for that land of glorious light I'll look upon the lovely face of Jesus in the land of paradise, yes I will Whose love would that I long to see would be waiting there in paradise All joy will finally be complete as we see the love in God's eyes Someday I'm gonna leave this world of darkness for that land of glorious light I'll look upon the lovely face of Jesus in the land of paradise Someday I'm gonna leave this world of darkness for that land of glorious light I'll look upon the lovely face of Jesus in the land of paradise Someday I'm gonna leave this world of darkness for that land of glorious light I'll look upon the lovely face of Jesus in the land of paradise Someday I'm gonna leave this world of darkness for that land of glorious light I'll look upon the lovely face of my Jesus in the land of paradise I'm gonna see that glorious light It will be the shiny face of my Jesus in the land of paradise
