In Heaven's Land

1 Soon I shall lay my burdens down,
To wear a robe and shining crown;
I'll surely have a happy time,
In heaven's fair and sunny clime.

Refrain:
In heaven's fair happy homeland,
With mom and dad I'll there shake hands;
While ages roll we'll dell in peace,
Where happiness can never cease.

2 I'll meet my friends gone on before,
And loved ones too, on Cannan's shore;
They're waiting now to welcome me,
to that bright home across the sea. [Refrain]

3 We'll sing glad praises to the Lord,
Where voices blend in sweet accord;
Thru all eternity,His love will light
that wondrous home above. [Refrain]
