What Are They Doing in Heaven Today?

Lyrics

[Verse 1] What are they doing in heaven today Where sin and sorrow have all gone away Peace abounds like a river they say What are they doing there now? [Verse 2] I'm thinking of friends that I used to know Who lived and suffered in this world below But they're gone off to heaven, but I want to know What are they doing there now? [Chorus] What are they doing in heaven today Where sin and sorrow have all gone away Peace abounds like a river they say What are they doing there now? [Verse 3] There's some whose hearts were burdened with care They pay for their moment with fighting and tears But they clung to the cross with trembling and fear What are they doing there now? [Chorus] What are they doing in heaven today Where sin and sorrow have all gone away Peace abounds like a river they say What are they doing there now? [Verse 4] And there's some whose bodies were full of disease Physicians and doctors couldn't give them much ease But they suffered 'til death brought a final release But what are they doing there now? [Chorus] What are they doing in heaven today Where sin and sorrow have all gone away Peace abounds like a river they say What are they doing there now? [Verse 5] There's some who were poor and often despised They looked up toward heaven with tear-blinded eyes While people heedless and deaf to their cries What are they doing there now? [Chorus] What are they doing in heaven today Where sin and sorrow have all gone away Peace abounds like a river they say What are they doing there now? What are they doing in heaven today Where sin and sorrow have all gone away Peace abounds like a river they say What are they doing there now?
