Perfect for senior adult choirs, this piece promises early success, with a two-part structure for most of the song, and only episodic uses of SATB harmony. Lively and sprite, this new tune is memorable and strong.
Text
Sing the wondrous love of Jesus,
Sing his mercy and his grace;
In the mansions bright and blessed,
He'll prepare for us a place.
When we all get to heaven,
When we all get to heaven,
What a day of rejoicing that will be!
What a day, what a day of rejoicing 'twill be.
While we walk the pilgrim pathway,
Clouds will overspread the sky;
But when trav'ling days are over,
Not a shadow, not a sigh.
Onward to the prize before us!
Soon his beauty we'll behold:
Soon the pearly gates will open;
We shall tread the streets of gold.
What a day of rejoicing, What a day of rejoicing.
What a day, glorious day that will be!
