(Chorus) There will be joy up in the sky When our redemption draweth night We will be happy by and by There will be joy up in the sky I work and work and struggle each day To try and make ends meet I get up in the morning and I drive it 'till five So my family can eat But the thing that keeps me moving on Is I'm not here to stay So I keep telling myself hold on I will get paid someday (Repeat Chorus) I go to church to worship the King For all He's done for me You might think I'm peculiar and a little bit strange Well have your liberty But honey I have only just begun To let my praises ring 'Cause when I see the glory of the Son You're gonna hear me sing (Repeat Chorus)
