JOYFULLY YOURS

 

I WANT TO SEE ALL THE PROPHETS OF OLD,

WHEN I'M LIVING ON STREETS OF GOLD;

 

I'M SURE I'LL WANT TO HANG MY TOES

IN THE RIVER OF LIFE;

AS I ENJOY THE DIETY OF HEAVEN;

AWAY FROM THIS EARTH'S STRIFE.

 

I'LL ENJOY THE BEAUTY WE CANNOT FATHOM

DOWN HERE BELOW;

A PLACE SO WONDEROUS,

SO FAIR, I CAN'T WAIT TO GO!!

 

ISAAC, JACOB, MATTHEW AND PAUL;

OH, THE WONDERS OF IT ALL!

 

AND WHEN AT LAST, I DANCE AROUND THE THRONE,

I KNOW IN THE DISTANCE I WILL HEAR DAVID'S SONG!!
