Verse 1
One day
In a beautiful city
I’m going to stay
When death has passed
To life’s glorious victory
Troubles are gone
Eternal life has begun
Living in peace and joy
Forever with God
Chorus
Today
I don’t understand
How can it be
I only know about it
Through the word of God
But soon and very soon
The trumpets of God
Shall sound
And that will be the time
My eyes could see
My ears could hear
My mind could understand
How glorious it would be
The victory
That there’s no more pain
No more sickness
No more death
No more grief
There in the glorious heaven
We’ll live forever
With the King of kings
Jesus Christ my Lord
