We are going
we are going
To a home beyond the skies
Where the fields are robed in beauty
And the sunlight never dies;
Where the fount of joy is flowing
In the valley green and fair
We shall dwell in love together;
There will be no parting there.
We are going
we are going
To a home beyond the skies
Where the fields are robed in beauty
And the sunlight never dies.
We are going
we are going
And the music we have heard
Like the echo of the woodland
Or the carol of a bird;
With the rosy light of morning
On the calm and fragrant air
Still it murmurs
softly murmurs
There will be no parting there.
We are going
we are going
When this mortal life is o’er
To that pure and happy region
Where our friends have gone before;
They are singing with the angels
In that land so bright and fair;
We shall dwell with them forever;
There will be no parting there.
