Lyrics:

Written by peter green and j.s. green.





Oh, theres a way to keep the dark from the light

And theres a way to take the cold out of the night

And when I see its glow

The sun and moon are shadowed

By the everlasting day



When I reach up my hand

To the loving son of man

The bread of life will keep my soul alive



Theres a place where rivers flow in the street

Where fruit and healing leaves are seen on a tree

Where emerald walls shine clear

And golden streets run far and near

Behind the gates where his angels names appear



Solo



When I reach up my hand

To the loving son of man

The bread of life will keep my soul alive



And he will wipe away the tears from our eyes

As we watch this old world fade when it dies

And a new one shall come

And it will be heaven

And its waiting for us there in the skies



In the skies

In the skies

In the skies

In the skies
