Everybody dreams about
A home beyond the stars
Where we float around
On snowy clouds
And roam through fields
Of flowers
When we walk
Through the pearly gates
You just might be surprised
The noise
The crowds
The singing
As we harmonize
Chorus:
We’ll all sing a new song
Lord, what a mornin’
Can’t wait to hear that melody
He’s written a new scale
Do-Re-Me-Fa-So-La-Te-Do-No
Can’t you hear the heavenly harmony
We’ll sing ten octaves lower
Than any bass singer’s dream
Music will rise
Soar to the skies
Unlimited highs
Eternal gospel singin’
All day dinner on the ground
Gabriel, blow your trumpet
Go on, take a ride
David, strum your golden harp
It sounds so nice
Mariam (go ahead girl!)
Play the tambourine
The orchestra’s really cookin’
While the children sing
We might sing it country
For a thousand years
Then progress to opera
For the cultured ones there
The king, perhaps
Will then conduct a jubilee band
Then we’ll march around the city
Of this musical land
Repeat chorus
Please pass the biscuits
All day dinner on the…
Munchin’ concord grapes
And angel food cakes
All day dinner on the…
Meet you in the mornin’
With a “How do you do?”
At that all day dinner
On the ground
Oh yeah!
