Doris Akers - I'm Glad To Know There's A Heaven

This song means a lot to me. I can't help to think of my beautiful mother and my sister Martha every time I hear it and though I miss them so much, I do have to great comfort in knowing there is a heaven where we will see each other again...

I'm glad to know that there's a heaven
Its good to know that there's a place
I'm glad to know that when our loved ones take that journey
That someday we'll see them face to face

There's only joy and consolation
To know that they shall be with Him
That they are free from pain and never more will suffer
And we'll be together once again

We'll sing His praises together
We'll have to part no more
And we'll live on with Him through the ages
On that happy golden shore

I've got to live so I can meet them
Oh don't you know I cannot stray
But most of all I want to see my Blessed Savior
On that happy, happy glorious Day.

I always had Doris Akers Albums as a very young man and love hearing this outstanding Lady sing such awesome songs, I am now 71 years old and still can hear her voice, oh, how wonderful to hear this voice again,

Thanks so much for bringing back such wonderful memories.
