I
IN THE BIBLE WE READ OF A CITY,
WITH THE STREETS THAT ARE PAVED WITH PURE GOLD.
WE SHALL LIVE IN THAT CITY FOREVER.
AND THERE WE SHALL NEVER GROW OLD.
II
IN THE BIBLE WE READ OF A RIVER,
THAT FLOWS BY THE THRONE WE ARE TOLD.
WE SHALL DRINK OF IT'S LIFE LIVING WATERS
AND THERE WE SHALL NEVER GROW OLD.
III
IN THE BIBLE WE READ OF EARTH'S PILGRIM.
IN THIS WORLD THEY WERE HUNGRY AND COLD,
BUT HAVE REACHED THEIR HARBOR IN SAFETY,
AND THERE THEY SHALL NEVER GROW OLD.
CHORUS
IN HEAVEN WILL NEVER GROW OLD,
IN HEAVEN WILL NEVER GROW OLD,
WE SHALL LIVE IN THAT CITY FOREVER,
AND THERE WE SHALL GROW OLD.
