Around the throne of god in heaven

Around the throne of God in Heaven,
Thousands of children stand,
Children whose sins are all forgiven,
A holy, happy band,

Refrain

Singing, "Glory, glory,
Glory be to God on high."

In flowing robes of spotless white
See everyone arrayed
Dwelling in everlasting light
And joys that never fade,

Refrain

What brought them to the world above,
That Heaven so bright and fair,
Where all is peace, and joy, and love
How came those children there,

Refrain

Because the Savior shed His blood
To wash away their sin
Bathed in that pure and precious flood,
Behold them white and clean,

Refrain

On earth they sought the Savior's grace,
On earth they loved His Name
So now they see His blessèd face,
And stand before the Lamb,

Refrain
