1 We read of a place that’s called Heaven,
It’s made for the pure and the free;
These truths in God’s word He has given,
How beautiful Heaven must be.
Refrain:
How beautiful Heaven must be,
Sweet home of the happy and free;
Fair haven of rest for the weary,
How beautiful Heaven must be.
2 In Heaven, no drooping nor pining,
No wishing for elsewhere to be;
God’s light is forever there shining,
How beautiful Heaven must be. [Refrain]
3 Pure waters of life there are flowing,
And all who will drink may be free;
Rare jewels of splendor are glowing,
How beautiful Heaven must be. [Refrain]
4 The angels so sweetly are singing,
Up there by the beautiful sea;
The song of redemption is ringing,
How beautiful Heaven must be. [Refrain]
