1 verse:
Since Christ my soul from sin set free,
This world has been a heaven to me;
And ’mid Earth’s sorrows and its woe,
’Tis heaven my Jesus here to know.
Chorus:
O hallelujah! Yes, ’tis heaven,
’Tis heaven to know my sin's forgiven;
On land or sea, what matters where?
Where Jesus is, ’tis heaven there!
2 verse:
Once heaven seemed a far-off place,
Till Jesus showed His smiling face;
Now it’s begun within my soul,
’Twill last while endless ages roll.
3 verse:
What matters where on Earth we dwell?
On mountain top, or in the dell,
In cottage, or a mansion fair,
Where Jesus is, ’tis heaven there!
