In the morning when we rise

On that first day in paradise

We will see anew with heaven’s eyes

What we see  won’t be a surprise.

 

The lamb there welcoming His own

At the right hand of the Father’s throne

Before Him all things are made known

So all Glory goes to God alone.

 

And we shall shine like the Son

We shall shine like the Son

Beginning a day that shall never be done

We shall shine like the Son

 

Everlasting, ever blessed

In His presence we dwell and rest

In robes of righteousness we’re dressed

His glory with one voice confessed.

 

And we shall shine like the Son

We shall shine like the Son

Beginning a day that shall never be done

We shall shine like the Son
