Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

We read of a place that?s called heaven,

It?s made for the pure and the free;

These truths in God?s Word He hath given,

How beautiful heaven must be.


Refrain:

How beautiful heaven must be,

Sweet home of the happy and free;

Fair haven of rest for the weary,

How beautiful heaven must be.


In heaven no drooping nor pining,

No wishing for elsewhere to be;

God?s light is forever there shining,

How beautiful heaven must be.


Pure waters of life there are flowing,

And all who will drink may be free;

Rare jewels of splendor are glowing,

How beautiful heaven must be.


The angels so sweetly are singing,

Up there by the beautiful sea;

Sweet chords from their gold harps are ringing,

How beautiful heaven must be.
