What a happy time
that's sure to be
Jesus is comin' after me
I'll hear him callin' me away
from this old world
Forever to stay
And when I take
my savior's hand
in that blessed promised land
I'll shout and sing
through the endless ages
Oh what a happy day
Oh what a happy day
that will be
when we gather there
What a happy day
when we climb
those golden stairs
We'll meet with those
who have gone before
James and John
And a million more
What a happy time
that's sure to be
Oh what a happy day
And when I walk
into heaven fair
I'll see my blessed
savior there
He'll place a crown
upon my head
Give me a robe of white
to wear
I'll walk on streets
of purest gold
I'll live forever
and not grow old
I'll shout and sing
through the endless ages
Oh what a happy day
Oh what a happy day
that will be
when we gather there
What a happy day
when we climb
those golden stairs
We'll meet with those
who have gone before
James and John
And a million more
What a happy time
that's sure to be
Oh what a happy day
What a happy day
that will be
when we gather there
What a happy day
when we climb
those golden stairs
We'll meet with those
who have gone before
James and John
And a million more
What a happy time
that's sure to be
Oh what a happy day
Oh what a happy day
