What A Day That Will Be

This song has been rolling around in my head since my trip to Africa. You can read Big Nanny's post and you'll understand why. We sang it often in Africa. I haven't played the piano in months, but I've been sitting there picking it out on the keys recently because I can't find my hymnals (did somebody borrow them?).

You can get so overwhelmed by the needs and the poverty and the hopeless and desperate situations. But our sweet Savior is enough. And what a day that will be when they'll be no more sorrow, no more pain and no more tears. To me there is no better song for an HIV Orphanage.

Somebody needs to make sure that this song gets sung at my funeral, because it will always represent the love of my heart....Africa. And Jesse Lee if you're willing, you can come sing it!!

There is coming a day when no heartaches shall come
No more clouds in the sky, no more tears to dim the eye.
All is peace forevermore on that happy golden shore,
What a day, glorious day that will be.

Chorus
What a day that will be when my Jesus I shall see,
And I look upon His face,
The One who saved me by His grace;
When He takes me by the hand
And leads me through the Promised Land,
What a day, glorious day that will be.

There'll be no sorrow there, no more burdens to bear,
No more sickness, no pain, no more parting over there;
And forever I will be with the One who died for me,
What a day, glorious day that will be.

Chorus
