Lyrics:

'It Won't Be Long'
by Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs

There will come a time some morning 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
[ fiddle ]
We will meet our friends and loved ones when our toiling 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...
[ dobro ]
We will see the Saviour coming some glad morning on the farm
Hallelujah praise the Lord it won't be long
The saints and angels will come shouting oh what glory that will be
Hallelujah praise the Lord it won't be long
It won't be long...
