1 They shall come from the east, they shall come from the west,
and sit down in the Kingdom of God;
both the rich and the poor, the despised, and distressed,
they'll sit down in the Kingdom of God.
And none will ask what they have been,
provided that their robes are clean;
they shall come from the east, they shall come from the west,
and sit down in the Kingdom of God.

2 They shall come from the east, they shall come from the west,
and sit down in the Kingdom of God;
to be met by their Father and welcomed and blessed,
and sit down in the Kingdom of God.
The black, the white, the dark, the fair, 
your color will not matter there;
they shall come from the east, they shall come from the west,
and sit down in the Kingdom of God.

3 They shall come from the east, they shall come from the west,
and sit down in the Kingdom of God;
out of great tribulation to triumph and rest
they'll sit down in the Kingdom of God.
From every tribe and every race, 
all people there shall then embrace;
they shall come from the east, they shall come from the west,
and sit down in the Kingdom of God.
