Lyrics
When I get to Glory, I’m gonna sing, sing, sing
I’m gonna let the hallelujahs ring
I’m gonna praise my blessed Saviour’s name
When I get to Glory, I’m Gonna sing, sing, sing
In this world of sorrow, I’ve seen trouble and woe
When I get to Glory I’ll see no more
For ] I know my prayers have not been in vain
When I get to Glory, I’m gonna sing, sing, sing
Sometimes I get so weary inside
Then I recall how my Jesus died
Up there I know, there’ll be no pain
When I get to Glory, I’m gonna sing, sing, sing.
When I get to Glory, I’m gonna sing, sing, sing
I’m gonna let the hallelujahs ring
I’m gonna praise my blessed Saviour’s name
When I get to Glory, I’m Gonna sing, sing, sing
Up there no tears will blind my eyes
And I’ll walk along by my Jesus’ side
I’ll meet my loved ones all once again
When I get to Glory, I’m Gonna sing, sing, sing.
When I get to Glory, I’m gonna sing, sing, sing
I’m gonna let the hallelujahs ring
I’m gonna praise my blessed Saviour’s name
When I get to Glory, I’m Gonna sing, sing, sin
