INTRO

F C

F
I'm waiting watching and longing
     Bb                    F
That beautiful sight to behold

When I shall awake some bright morning
        C                         C7
In that city with streets of pure gold

   F
My savior has gone to prepare it
    Bb                 F
For all who accept his grace
    Bb                        F
And that's why I know I'll be welcome
     C                       C7
To a home in that wonderful place


CHORUS

           F
    When I reach my home in that city
            Bb                  F
    Shall I find you waiting up there
             Bb                        F
    With the saints who have gone on before us
            C                 C7
    To that beautiful home so fair
       F
    My whole heart is set upon heaven
             Bb                    F
    Where my savior's face I shall see
        Bb                        F
    And live in the light of his glory
          C               F
    Throughout all eternity

SOLO

   F
He bids us to work in His vineyard
   Bb                     F
To toil for Him early and late
       Bb                      F
What a glorious reward for our labor
   C                    C7
To enter that beautiful gate


CHORUS

           F
    When I reach my home in that city
            Bb                  F
    Shall I find you waiting up there
              Bb                       F
    With the saints who have gone on before us
            C                 C7
    To that beautiful home so fair
       F
    My whole heart is set upon heaven
          Bb                       F
    Where my savior's face I shall see
        Bb                        F
    And live in the light of his glory
          C               F
    Throughout all eternity
