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 has given
How beautiful heaven must be
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
How beautiful heaven must be
Sweet home of the happy and free;
Fair haven of rest for the weary
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
How beautiful heaven must be
Sweet home of the happy and free;
Fair haven of rest for the weary
How beautiful heaven must be
