There's a happy land of promise
over in the great beyond
Where the saved of earth shall soon the glory share

Where the souls of men shall enter
and live on forever more
Everybody will be happy over there


Chorus
(Bass: Everybody will be happy, will be happy over there,)

Everybody, will be happy, (Will...) Will be happy, (O...) over there
(Bass: We will shout and sing His praises through the never-ending ages)
We will shout and sing His praise

(All:) Everybody will be happy over there



Mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers
will be singing 'round the throne
In that land where no one ever knows a care

And the Christians of all ages
will join in the triumph song
Everybody will be happy over there


We'll meet the one who saved us
and who kept us by His grace

And who brought us to that land so bright and fair
We will praise His name forever
as we look upon His face

Everybody will be happy over there
