1)
HERE IN THIS LIFE MY TROUBLES ARE MANY
BUT I AM LOOKING OUT AHEAD
TRUSTING IN GOD'S TRUSTING IN GOD'S
REDEEMING GRACE HIS REDEEMING GRACE
TRUSTING IN JESUS SERVING HIM DAILY
NOTHING CAN GIVE ME FEAR OR DREAD
HEAVEN WILL BE HEAVEN WILL BE
MY RESTING PLACE BE MY RESTING PLACE
CHORUS)
HEAVEN WILL BE HEAVEN WILL BE
MY HOME ETERNAL WHEN I GET THERE
AND IT WILL BE AND IT WILL BE
MY RESTING PLACE BE MY RESTING PLACE
AFTER I'VE SPENT MY LIFE FOR THE MASTER
SEEKING FOR SOULS WHO WERE ASTRAY
HEAVEN WILL BE HEAVEN WILL BE
MY RESTING PLACE BE MY RESTING PLACE
2)
WHEN I HAVE FINISHED ALL OF MY LABORS
I SHALL BE CALLED FROM EARTH AWAY
AND I SHALL RISE AND I SHALL RISE
ON WINGS OF FAITH YES ON WINGS OF FAITH
ALL OF MY FRIENDS AND LOVING OLD NEIGHBORS
I SHALL BE SEEING SOME SWEET DAY
HEAVEN WILL BE HEAVEN WILL BE
MY RESTING PLACE BE MY RESTING PLACE
3)
AFTER I'M DONE WITH TROUBLES AND TRIALS
AFTER MY BURDENS I'VE LAID DOWN
HEAVEN WILL BE HEAVEN WILL BE
MY RESTING PLACE BE MY RESTING PLACE
WHEN MY WORK FOR JESUS IS OVER
I SHALL GO HOME TO WEAR A CROWN
HEAVEN WILL BE HEAVEN WILL BE
MY RESTING PLACE BE MY RESTING PLACE
