(Chorus)
There will be joy up in the sky
When our redemption draweth night
We will be happy by and by
There will be joy up in the sky

I work and work and struggle each day
To try and make ends meet
I get up in the morning and I drive it 'till five
So my family can eat
But the thing that keeps me moving on
Is I'm not here to stay
So I keep telling myself hold on
I will get paid someday

(Repeat Chorus)

I go to church to worship the King
For all He's done for me
You might think I'm peculiar and a little bit strange
Well have your liberty
But honey I have only just begun
To let my praises ring
'Cause when I see the glory of the Son
You're gonna hear me sing

(Repeat Chorus)
