The Wonderful City

歌詞

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 accept his grace And that's why I know I'll be welcome To a home in that wonderful place When I reach my home in that city Shall I find you waiting up there With the saints who have gone on 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 Oh-de-lay-ee, oh-lay-ee, oh-lay-ee He bids us to work in his vineyards 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 who have gone on 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 Oh-de-lay-ee-hee, oh-lay-ee-hee, oh-lay-ee
