<b>I'm Bound For That City</b> by <i>Allison Durham Speer</i><br />

Chorus 1

I'm bound for that city

God's holy white city

Oh yes I am

I'll never turn back, to this world anymore

No matter how rough may be the way

No matter how oft I stop to pray

I'm bound for that city

On that ever green shore

Verse 1

There's a city of light

Where there cometh no night

For the sun never sets in the sky

In the Bible we're told

That the streets are pure gold

And a cool gentle river runs by

Verse 2

Little children will play

And our hearts will be gay

As we stroll through that city of pure gold

No more dying up there

No more burdens to bear

For nobody will be feeble or old

Bridge

Heaven will surely be worth it all

Without the sorrow that here befall

After this life with all it's strife

Heaven will surely be worth it all

Tag

No matter how rough may be the way

No matter how oft I stop to pray

I'm bound for that city on that ever green shore

I'm bound for that city on that ever green shore
