We’ll Say Goodbye

I believe we're living in the final days
Just before the trumpet calls the church away
There is a work that we must occupy
'Til that sweet moment when we say goodbye

We'll say goodbye
To these old days of sorrow
Goodbye to this earthly field
We'll say goodbye
To those uncertain tomorrows
We're gonna leave our trials
And our troubles down here
We're gonna rise and soar
Above the reach of thе eagles
We'll sing as wе sail through the crowds
As we move upward, we'll be shouting
"We've been glorified"
We're gonna leave, we're gonna fly
We'll say goodbye

And lo, we have to struggle
Through these human years
We're headed for a land
Where there are no more tears
This earthly cave will soon be cast aside
And we won't look back
After we say goodbye

We'll say goodbye
To these old days of sorrow
Goodbye to this earthly field
We'll say goodbye
To those uncertain tomorrows
We're gonna leave our trials
And our troubles down here
We're gonna rise and soar
Above the reach of the eagles
We'll sing as we sail through the crowds
As we move upward, we'll be shouting
"We've been glorified"
We're gonna leave, we're gonna fly
We'll say goodbye

When the saints come marching in
Oh, when the saints come marching in
As we move upward, we'll be shouting
"We've been glorified"
We're gonna leave, we're gonna fly
We'll say goodbye

We'll say goodbye
To these old days of sorrow
Goodbye to this earthly field
We'll say goodbye
To those uncertain tomorrows
We're gonna leave our trials
And our troubles down here
We're gonna rise and soar
Above the reach of the eagles
We'll sing as we sail through the crowds
As we move upward, we'll be shouting
"We've been glorified"
We're gonna leave, we're gonna fly
We're gonna leave church, we're gonna fly
We'll say goodbye
