Uplifting Songs ‎#55

55. No Care in Heaven

1 In heav’n above, there is no care,
No pleading voice, of doubting pray’r;
But loving hearts and joyful song
As pass the happy days along.

Refrain:
Heav’n is not far, but very near,
So if our ears are train’d to hear,
May catch the song the angels sing
And hear the rustle of a wing.

2 Our faithful friends of earth are few,
As Jesus’ great white throne they view,
Shout praises to their Saviour King
And with the white rob’d, anthems sing. [Refrain]

3 Temptations now are felt no more,
Forgotten on the heav’nly shore,
There grateful hearts their vict’ry tell,
They’re saved because He lov’d them well. [Refrain]

4 Be heav’nly minded here below,
Before we to our mansion go,
Then Jesus’ care will be complete
And strengthen our poor stumbling feet. [Refrain]
