Your First Day In Heaven

Oh, it's a great, great mornin'
Your first day in Heaven
When you stroll down the golden avenue
There are mansions left and right
And you thrill to every sight
And the saints are always smilin'
Sayin', "How do you do?"
Oh, it's a great, great mornin'
Your first day in Heaven
When you realize your worried days are through
You'll be glad you were not idle
Took time to read your Bible
It's a great mornin' for you

I had a dream and I'll confess I hated to awake
Well he dreamed he was an angel at the great pearly gate
St. Peter said, "Well, hello there
Where you've been?
We've got your mansion ready, so, come right in"
And then he rang for an angel to act as his guide
He spread his wings a time or two and learned how to fly

Oh, it's a great, great mornin'
Your first day in Heaven
When you stroll down the golden avenue
There are mansions left and right
And you thrill to every sight
And the saints are always smilin'
Sayin', "How do you do?"
Oh, it's a great, great mornin'
Your first day in Heaven
When you realize your worried days are through
You'll be glad you were not idle
Took time to read your Bible
It's a great mornin'

A great mornin'
What a happy day
