Since I was born I heard about this place
Where there is always sunshine and everyday is a Sunday
There will be no more rain no more skies that are gray
Oh, they tell me of an uncloudy day

All my life I've heard about this beautiful place
It's somewhere beyond the galaxy and outer space
Where the streets are gold as glass and sheer with transparency
Where we shout and sing His praise throughout eternity

As I grew old, I wondered bout this place
Will I ever get there; how much longer will I have to wait?
Then I felt a sensation from my head down to my face
On a Tuesday afternoon I felt my body change
I've been raptured!

All my life I dreamed about this beautiful place
And I can't believe my eyes I really see His face
Reunited with my loved ones walking hand in hand

And the Holy River intertwines with emerald sand

"Oh, my God, the flowers sing!"
As pure white horses kneel down
For the King has made His entrance at the trumpets sound
As we sing His throne changes from blue to aqua-marine
And to shades of indigo unlike you've ever seen

No more death, no more pain
Joy, everlasting Zion sings Holy, Holy, Holy
Oh, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
We have over come

We have over come
Maki-na ka-ata (we have defeated our enemy)
Cantemos, bailemos (let us sing, let us dance)
Harambee (let us come together)
