Lyrics: Flatt and Scruggs. It Won't Be Long.

There will come a time some mornin'
When all the saints will rise and shine
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long

Up to that happy home in glory
Where the souls shall never die
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long

It won't be long, it won't be long
Till we hear the angels sing the victory song
Then we'll gather around the throne
There to live forever more
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long

We will meet our friends and loved ones
When our toilin' here is over
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long

There we'll shout and sing His praises
In that land forever more
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long

It won't be long, it won't be long
Till we hear the angels sing the victory song
Then we'll gather around the throne
There to live forever more
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long

We would see the Savior comin'
Some glad mornin' on the farm
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long

The saints and angels will come shoutin'
Oh, what glory that will be
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long

It won't be long, it won't be long
Till we hear the angels sing the victory song
Then we'll gather around the throne
There to live forever more
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, it won't be long
