1 What a wonderful Savior is Jesus,
Who suffered with nail-pierced hand;
O yes, ’twill be heaven to see Him,
When we reach the glory land.

Chorus:
When we reach the glory land,
When we reach the glory land,
We’ll walk and we’ll talk with the Savior
When we reach the glory land.

2 O the Savior is calling the sinner,
To join with that glorious band
Of saved who will praise Him forever,
When we reach the glory land. [Chorus]

3 In the glorious, wonderful city,
Where Jesus shall have command,
We’ll dwell with the Savior forever,
When we reach the glory land. [Chorus]
