Lyrics
Verse 1
As I travel thru life, with its trouble and strife, I've a glorious hope to give cheer on the way; Soon my toils will be o'er and I'll rest on that shore, Where the night has been turned into day.
Verse 2
As I roam the hillside, or I list to the tide, As I pluck the sweet flowers that grow in the dale; A faint picture is there of a land bright and fair, Where perennial flowers ne'er fail.
Verse 3
Tho' your garden is rare, it is naught to compare With the flowers that bloom in the garden above, In the midst of it grows, Sharon's perfect sweet Rose; 'Tis the wonderful Flower we love.
Chorus
Up in paradise valley By the side of the river of life, Up in paradise valley, We'll be free from all pain and all strife; There we'll live in the garden, 'Neath the shade of the evergreen tree, How I long for the paradise valley, Where the beauty of heaven I'll see.
