Until Then

Until the day my eyes behold the city

Until the day God calls me home

(Calls me home, calls me home)

My heart can sing when I pause to remember

A heartache here is but a steppingstone

Along a trail that's winding always upward

This troubled world is not my final home

But until then my heart will go on singing

Until then with joy I'll carry on

Until the day my eyes behold the city

Until the day God calls me home

(Calls me home, calls me home)

This weary world with all its toil and struggle

May take its toll of misery and strife

The soul of man is like a waiting falcon

When it's released, it's destined for the skies

But until then my heart will go on singing

Until then with joy I'll carry on

Until the day my eyes behold the city

Until the day God calls me home

(God calls me home)
