What Are They Doing In Heaven Today
I'm thinking of friends whom I used to know,Who lived and suffered in this world belowBut they've gone off to heaven, but I want to knowWhat are they doing there now?Oh, what are they doing in heaven today,Where sin and sorrow are all done away?Peace abounds like a river, they say.But what are they doing there now?There's some whose heartsWere burdened with careThey paid for their moment with fighting and tearsBut they clung to the cross trembling in fearBut what are they doing there now?What are they doing in heaven today,Where sin and sorrow are all done away?Peace abounds like a river, they say.What are they doing there now?And there's some whose bodies were full of diseasePhysicians and doctors couldn't give them much easeBut they suffered 'til death brought a final releaseBut what are they doing there now?Letras de cancionesWhat are they doing in heaven today,Where sin and sorrow are all done away?Peace abounds like a river, they say.What are they doing there now?There's some who were poor and often despisedThey looked up to heaven with tear-blinded eyesWhile people were heedless and deaf to their criesBut what are they doing there now?What are they doing in heaven today,Where sin and sorrow are all done away?Peace abounds like a river, they say.What are they doing there now?What are they doing in heaven today,Where sin and sorrow are all done away?Peace abounds like a river, they say.What are they doing there now?
