i'm bound for that city

g

there's a city of light where there cometh no night
and 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

ch
i'm bound for that city god's holy white city
oh yes i am
i'll never turn back to this world any more
no matter how rough may be the way
no matter how oft i stop to pray
i'm bound for that city on the ever green shore

little children will play and our hearts will be gay
as we stroll thru that city of gold
no more dying up there no more sorrows to bear
and nobody will be feeble and old

ch
