There so many are taking vacations to the mountains and lakes and the sea
|
Where they rest from their cares and their worries
|
What a wonderful time that must be
|
But it seems not my luck to be like them I must toil through the heat and the cold
|
Seeking out the lost sheep on the mountains bringing wanderers back to the fold
|
When I take my vacation in heaven what a wonderful time that will be
|
Hearing concerts by the heavenly chorus and the face of my Saviour I'll see
|
Sitting down on the banks of the river neath the shade of the evergreen tree
|
I shall rest from my burdens forever won't you spend your vacation with me
|
[ steel ]
|
Now someday I shall take my vacation to the city John tells us about
|
With its foundation walk oh so precious with the gladness of heart I shall shout
|
All those sights ever witness by mortals can compare with the glory up there
|
I shall spend my vacation with Jesus in the place he went on to prepare
|
When I take my vacation in heaven...
