Angel voices sweetly singing, Echoes through the blue dome ringing, News of wondrous gladness bringing; Ah, 'tis heaven at last!
Refrain
Heaven at last, heaven at last; O, the joyful story of heaven at last! Heaven at last, heaven at last; Endless, boundless glory, In heaven at last.

On the jasper threshold standing, Like a pilgrim safely landing, See the strange bright scene expanding; Ah, 'tis heaven at last!
Verse 3
Softest voices, silver pealing, Freshest fragrance, spirit healing, Happy hymns around us stealing; Ah, 'tis heaven at last!
Verse 4
Not a teardrop ever falleth, Not a pleasure ever palleth, Song to song forever calleth; Ah, 'tis heaven at last!

Christ Himself the living splendor, Christ the sunlight, mild and tender;v Praise to the Lamb we render; Ah, 'tis heaven at last!
