There are those who are taking vacations to the mountains the lakes and the sea
|
Where they rest from their cares and their troubles
|
What a wonderful time that must be
|
But it seems not my lot to be like them I must toil through the heat and the cold
|
Seekin' out the lost sheep on the mountains bringing wanderers back to the fold
|
But when I take my vacation in heaven what a wonderful time that will be
|
Hearing concerts by the heavenly chorus and the face of my Saviour I'll see
|
Sitting down on the banks of the river neath the shade of the evergreen tree
|
There I'll rest from my burdens forever won't you take your vacation with me
|
(Sitting down on the banks of the river under the shade of the evergreen tree)
|
There I'll rest from my burdens forever won't you take your vacation with me
