I am going to a city,
|
Where the streets with gold are laid,
|
Where the tree of life is blooming,
|
And the roses never fade.
|
|
Here they bloom but for a season;
|
Soon their beauty is decayed.
|
I am going to a city,
|
Where the roses never fade.
|
|
In this world we have our troubles,
|
Satan snares we must evade.
|
We'llbe free from all temptations,
|
Where the roses never fade.
|
|
Loved one's gone to be with Jesus,
|
In their robes of white arrayed.
|
They are waiting for my coming,
|
Where the roses never fade.
|
|
Here they bloom but for a season;
|
Soon their beauty is decayed.
|
I am going to a city,
|
Where the roses never fade.
|
|
O I am going to a city....
|
Where the roses never fade...
|
