Jimmie Rodgers - The Wonderful City lyrics

I'm waiting watching and longing That beautiful sight to behold When I shall awake some bright morning In that city where streets are bright gold My savior has gone to see Paris For all to accept his grace And that's how I know I'll be welcome To a home in that wonderful place When I reach my home in that city Shall I find you waiting up there With the saints who have gone on before us To that beautiful home so fair My whole heart is set up on heaven Where my savior shall see And live in the light of his glory For all eternity He bids us to work in his vineyard To toil for him early and late What a glorious reward or our labor To enter that beautiful gate When I reach my home in that city Shall I find you waiting up there With the saints who have gone on before us To that beautiful home so fair My whole heart is set up on heaven Where my savior shall see And live in the light of his glory For all eternity
