Andraé Crouch's 'Soon and Very Soon' is a classic gospel song that expresses joyful anticipation of seeing Jesus in heaven. The lyrics emphasize the hope of eternal life, where there will be no more crying or pain. It acknowledges life's challenges—rivers to cross and mountains to climb—but affirms that God provides strength to reach the other side. The song also celebrates salvation through Jesus' blood and the unity of believers from every nation. Its repeated refrain of 'Hallelujah' and the promise of meeting again on the other side make it a staple of Christian hope and comfort.

Soon and very soon

We are going to see the King

Soon and very soon

We are going to see the King

Soon and very soon

We are going to see the King

Hallelujah, hallelujah

We're going to see the king


No more crying there

We are going to see the King

No more crying there

We are going to see the King

No more crying there

We are going to see the King

Hallelujah, hallelujah

We're going to see the King


Should there be any rivers we must cross

Should there be any mountains we must climb

God will supply all the strength that we need

Give us strength till we reach the other side


We have come from every nation,

God has already signed our name.

Jesus took his blood and he washed my sins..

He washed them all away.

Yet there are those of us who have laid down our lives but we all shall meet again on the other side... soon and very soon


Soon and very soon

We are going to see the King


No more crying there

We are going to see the King


Hallelujah, hallelujah

We're going to see the King


Hallelujah

Hallelujah

We're going to see the King!
