0. Singing On

1 We are a band of singers, Singing on our way,
Seeking that fair city, Of eternal day;
When life on earth is over, Night forever gone,
There we'll sing God's praises Ever on and on.

Refrain:
Singing on, day by day Of our home far away;
We shall sing evermore, Over on that peaceful shore.

2 We love to tell the story, In a cheerful song,
Of the perfect morning That for us shall dawn;
In song we honor Jesus, Lamb of Calvary,
Who Himself has given That we might be free. [Refrain]

3 When we shall reach that city, Home of endless day,
With the blessed Savior We shall live for aye;
And there we'll sing with loved ones Who have gone before,
No more separations On fair heaven's shore. [Refrain]
