far celestial shore

There's a place I know for certain

I will someday see

When I lay down my burden

And look on galilee

Way beyond the surly bonds of earth and hate and war

On a far celestial shore

There's a valley of crystal waters

Vines adorn the hill

Every bough is heavy with fruit

You can pick your fill

There's a land of plenty where no child shall want for more

On a far celestial shore

And I'll know such jubilation

Joy and exaltation when I see my lord

There's a chior and congregation

Oooh how sweet the sound

But laughter too is everywhere

Grey faces are not found

Hallelujah's rise up from a whisper to a roar

On a far celestial shore

Way beyond the surly bonds of earth and hate and war

On a far celestial shore

There's a land of plenty where no child shall want for more

On a far celestial shore

Hallelujah's rise up from a whisper to a roar

On a far celestial shore

On a far far celestial shore

On a far celestial shore
