INTRO

C
I'm waiting watching and longing
     F                    C
That beautiful sight to behold

When I shall awake some bright morning
        G                         G7
In that city with streets of pure gold

   C
My savior has gone to prepare it
    F                 C
For all who accept his grace
    F                        C
And that's why I know I'll be welcome
     G                       G7
To a home in that wonderful place


GHORUS

           C
    When I reach my home in that city
            F                  C
    Shall I find you waiting up there
             F                        C
    With the saints who have gone on before us
            G                 G7
    To that beautiful home so fair
       C
    My whole heart is set upon heaven
             F                    C
    Where my savior's face I shall see
        F                        C
    And live in the light of his glory
          G               C
    Throughout all eternity

He bids us to work in His vineyard
   F                     C
To toil for Him early and late
       F                      C
What a glorious reward for our labor
   G                    G7
To enter that beautiful gate

    And live in the light of his glory
          G               C
    Throughout all eternity
