It Won't Be Very Long

You know it won't be very long

You know it won't be very long

You know it won't be very long

'Till all this aches, get home

Will you be ready then

Just to meet the wrathsome throng?

You better get ready for the day child

You know it won't be very long

You know it won't be very long

'Till the day I of my tries

It won't be very long

Tell we meet him in the sky

Lord and then I'll shout and see

With angels on the throne

I'm getting ready for that day child

I know it won't be very, very long

You know it won't be very long

You know it won't be very long

You know it won't be very long

'Till all saints get home

Will you be ready then

Just to meet the wrath and thorn crown?

You better get ready for the day child

You know it won't be very long

I know it won't be very long

'Till I receive my starry crown

It won't be very long

'Till all of my burdens I lay down

And when I from this race

I'm gonna save my saviors face

I'm getting ready for that day child

I know it won't be very, very long
