When I Take My Vacation In Heaven (Mono)

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

Seeking out the lost sheep on a mountain

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

Beneath the shade of the evergreen tree

There I'll rest from my burdens forever

Won't you take your vacation with me
