Chorus 1
I'm bound for that city
God's holy white city
Oh yes I am
I'll never turn back, to this world anymore
No matter how rough may be the way
No matter how oft I stop to pray
I'm bound for that city
On that ever green shore
Verse 1
There's a city of light
Where there cometh no night
For the sun never sets in the sky
In the Bible we're told
That the streets are pure gold
And a cool gentle river runs by
Verse 2
Little children will play
And our hearts will be gay
As we stroll through that city of pure gold
No more dying up there
No more burdens to bear
For nobody will be feeble or old
Bridge
Heaven will surely be worth it all
Without the sorrow that here befall
After this life with all it's strife
Heaven will surely be worth it all
Tag
No matter how rough may be the way
No matter how oft I stop to pray
I'm bound for that city on that ever green shore
I'm bound for that city on that ever green shore
