Rodeheaver's Gospel Solos and Duets ‎#63

63. Glorious City

1 Do you ever stop to ponder
On the joys we soon shall see?
Of the home in heaven yonder—
Standing by the crystal sea?

Chorus:
Glorious city over there,
Where the sun is ever shining bright and fair;
To that city, glorious city,
I am going, and I want to meet you there.

2 Can you not foresee its glory—
Beauteous city in the sky?
You have often heard the story—
How its pleasures never die. [Chorus]

3 O how glad will be the greeting
When we reach that home so fair!
O how sweet will be the meeting
With our loved ones over there! [Chorus]
