My heart can sing when I pause to remember A heartache here is but a stepping stone Along the trail that's winding always upward This troubled world is not my final home But until then my heart will go on singing Until then with joy I'll carry on Until the day my eyes behold that city Until the day God calls me home The things of earth will *** and lose their value If we recall they're borrowed for a while And things of earth that cause my heart to tremble Remember them will only bring a smile But until then my heart will go on singing Until then with joy I'll carry on Until the day my eyes behold that city Until the day God calls me home But until then my heart will go on singing Until then with joy I'll carry on Until the day my eyes behold that city Until the day, until the day, until the day God calls me home Until the day he calls me home
