It Won't Be Long

1 4 1
There will come a time some morning when all the saints will rise and shine
1
(Hallelujah) praise the Lord it won’t be long
1 4 1
Up to that happy home in glory where the soul shall never die
5 1
(Hallelujah) praise the Lord it won’t be long

1
It won’t be long (it won’t be long) it won’t be long (it won’t be long)
5
‘Til we hear the angels sing the victory song
1 4 1
Then we’ll gather around the throne there to live forever more
5 1
(Hallelujah) praise the Lord it won’t be long

We will meet our friends and loved ones when our toiling here is over
(Hallelujah) praise the Lord it won’t be long
There we’ll shout and sing his praises in that land forever more
(Hallelujah) praise the Lord it won’t be long

We will see the Savior coming some glad morning on a cloud
(Hallelujah) praise the Lord it won’t be long
The saints and angels will come shouting oh what glory that will be
(Hallelujah) praise the Lord it won’t be long
