Ev-ry-bod-y will be hap-py,

Ev-ry-bod-y will be hap-py o-ver there

Mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers
will be singing ’round the throne
In that land where no one ever knows a care
And the Christians of all ages
will join in the triumph song
Everybody will be happy over there

We will hear nobody praying
and no mourning in that land
For no burdens there will be for us to bear
All the people will be singing
glory, glory to the Lamb
Everybody will be happy over there

We’ll meet the one who saved us
and who kept us by His grace
And who brought us to that land so bright and fair
We will praise His name forever
as we look upon His face
Everybody will be happy over there
