"One Of These Days"

Verse 1

Some glad morning the trumpet's gonna sound to call His church away

I'll be leaving town, I'll be Heaven bound, no longer I'll have to stay

When Gabriel blows the horn to call the Christians home, you better get out of my way

'Cuz I'll be running through the gates, shouting all the way one of these days

Chorus

Well, I'm gonna walk the streets of glory one of these days

I'm gonna end this earthly story one of these days

I'm gonna shake the hands of saints of old and see my Savior's face

I'm gonna walk the streets of glory one of these days

Verse 2

When I get to Heaven I will be rejoicing, oh it won't be long

I'll be singing with the angels, can't you hear it ringing, a hallelujah song

I'll be praising Christ my Savior, singing in the choir for eternity long

Walking streets of gold, hearing stories told, one of these days

Repeat Chorus 2x's
