[Eb]
[C] [Eb]
There's a place I know for certain I will someday see
[Cm] When I lay down my burden and look on Galilee
[Eb] Way beyond the surly bonds of earth and hate [Cm] and war
[Eb] On a far [Ab] celestial [Eb] shore
There's a valley of crystal waters,
[Ebm] vines [Eb] adorn the hill
[Cm]
And every bough is heavy with fruit you can pick your field
[Eb]
There's a land of plenty where no child shall want [C] for more
On a [Eb] far [Ab] celestial [Eb] shore
[Bb] And I'll know such jubilation, [Ab] joy and exultation
When I [Eb] see my God
There's a choir and congregation, ooh how sweet the sound
But laughter [Cm] too is everywhere, gray faces are not found
[Eb] Hallelujah, rise up from a whisper to [Cm] a roar
[Eb] On a far [Ab] celestial [Eb] shore
