In this awful world of sorrow
On this wicked path of sin
Never thinking of tomorrow
Or what I'd lose in the end
Oh I can hear
(oh I can hear) the joy bells ringing
Where my friends
(where my friends) and loved ones wait
Oh I can hear the angels singing
(sweet singing)
Just inside
(just inside) those pearly gates
I can hear my savior calling
Saying come unto me
Wash away your sins forever
And you shall rest eternally
Now I'm safe with my Jesus
He will guide me on my way
I will sing His praise forever
We'll meet in heaven some sweet day
