What a glad thought some wonderful morning
I shall hear Gabriel’s trumpet sound
When I wake up (when I wake up)
To sleep no more
Rising to meet my blessed Redeemer
With a glad shout I’ll leave the ground
When I wake up (when I wake up)
to sleep no more (to sleep no more)

Chorus:
When I wake up on some glad morning
To sleep no more jewels adorning
Happy I’ll be over in glory
On Heaven’s bright shore telling the story
With the redeemed of all the ages
Praising the One whom I adore
When I wake up (when I wake up)
to sleep no more (to sleep no more)

Glory to God I’ll have a new body
Changed in the twinkling of an eye
When I wake up (when I wake up)
To sleep no more
Leaving behind all trouble and sorrow
Bound for that city up on high
When I wake up (when I wake up)
to sleep no more (to sleep no more)   Chorus

I shall behold the beauties of heaven
with the redeemed of ev'ry race,
When I wake up (When I wake up)
to sleep no more (to sleep no more)
'Neath the green trees beside the still waters
I shall than find a resting place,
When I wake up (When I wake up)
to sleep no more. (to sleep no more.)  Chorus
