1 I want to live in glory,
When done with pain and care;
I want to hear the music
That’s ever floating there;
I want to roam thro’ pastures
Where crystal streamlets flow.
I want to learn the secrets
That only angels know.
Refrain:
I want to live in glory,
When done with toil and tears;
I want to dwell with Jesus
Thro’ never ending years.
2 I want to join the dear ones,
Who’ve crossed the fearful tide;
And near the gate are waiting
Upon the heavenly side,
That they be first to lead me
Along the golden strand,
And witness all my rapture,
When first I view the land. [Refrain]
