What Are They Doing In Heaven Today

But they've gone off to heaven, but I want to know

What are they doing there now?

Oh, what are they doing in heaven today

Where sin and sorrow are all done away?

Peace abounds like a river, they say

But what are they doing there now?

There's some whose hearts

Were burdened with care

They paid for their moment with fighting and tears

But they clung to the cross trembling in fear

But what are they doing there now?

What are they doing in heaven today

Where sin and sorrow are all done away?

Peace abounds like a river, they say

What are they doing there now?

And there's some whose bodies were full of disease

Physicians and doctors couldn't give them much ease

But they suffered 'til death brought a final release

But what are they doing there now?

What are they doing in heaven today

Where sin and sorrow are all done away?

Peace abounds like a river, they say

What are they doing there now?

There's some who were poor and often despised

They looked up to heaven with tear-blinded eyes

While people were heedless and deaf to their cries

But what are they doing there now?

What are they doing in heaven today

Where sin and sorrow are all done away?

Peace abounds like a river, they say

What are they doing there now?

What are they doing in heaven today

Where sin and sorrow are all done away?

Peace abounds like a river, they say

What are they doing there now?
