Chorus:
(Troubles heartaches and pain)
(will soon) soon be over,
(there'll be no more) no more weeping
(all be) all be over.
(Tears-stained eyes and mournful cries)
(will soon) soon over,
(we'll shout) shout hallelujah by and by.
Verse:
Soon this mortal soul has got to move (all over),
to a new and high nation (all over),
where's there's peace love and joy (all over),
no more tribulation (all over)
and we will rise
(rise, rise up and walk).
See the saints get ready for their rest (all over)
and we will rise
(rise, rise up and walk)
See the servant get ready for his test (all over)
and we will rise
(rise, rise up and walk)
Oh what a happy day it will be (all over)
and we will rise
(rise, rise up and walk)
There'll be no more dying (all over)
and we will rise
(rise, rise up and walk)
Vamp:
Rise, rise up and walk.
Rise, rise up and walk.
Ending:
Shout hallelujah by and by.
