Way up, way up,
Way up, way up,
High up, oh, in Jerusalem
When I die (repeat)
God knows I’m gonna
Walk (walk in Jerusalem)
Talk (talk in Jerusalem)
Sing (sing in Jerusalem)
Be (be in Jerusalem)
High up, oh, in Jerusalem when I die.
Well, be (be in Jerusalem)
Sing (sing in Jerusalem)
Shout (shout in Jerusalem)
Pray (pray in Jerusalem)
High up, oh, in Jerusalem when I die.
When I get down to the river,
I’m gonna stick my sword in the sand,
For I spy the old ship of Zion,
She took a-many to the Promised Land.
Way over in Beulah,
I see the Captain beckon to me,
Well, he’s calling all of God’s children
To meet him in the Promised Land.
God knows I’m gonna
Walk (walk in Jerusalem)
Talk (talk in Jerusalem)
Sing (sing in Jerusalem)
Be (be in Jerusalem)
High up, oh, in Jerusalem
When I die, When I die.
Well, be (be in Jerusalem)
Sing (sing in Jerusalem)
Shout (shout in Jerusalem)
Pray (pray in Jerusalem)
High up, oh, in Jerusalem
When I die.
Way over in Beulah,
There ain’t no dying there,
But the saints are shouting victory,
Lord, they’re singing out everywhere.
Way over in Beulah,
I hear the voices of friends I’ve known,
They done gone on, gone up to Glory,
Well, a long time ago.
They’ve been ready,
They’ve been watching,
They’ve been waiting at the Beautiful Gate,
And one day I’m gonna see them,
And be with them forever more.
God knows I’m gonna
Walk (walk in Jerusalem)
Talk (talk in Jerusalem)
Sing (sing in Jerusalem)
Be (be in Jerusalem)
High up, oh, in Jerusalem
When I die, When I die.
Well, be (be in Jerusalem)
Sing (sing in Jerusalem)
Shout (shout in Jerusalem)
Pray (pray in Jerusalem)
High up, oh, in Jerusalem
When I die.
