"When He Comes"

"When He Comes"


Every eye shall see every ear shall hear the sound of angels
When He comes
When He comes
Every knee shall bow every tongue shall confess that He is Lord
When He comes
When He comes

[Chorus:]
And He'll plant His Beautiful feet upon this mountain
And the dead of all the ages who believed on Him will rise
And I'll be one I'll be one in the first Resurrection
When He comes
When He comes
When He comes

Everyone then will know that it's Him, really Him the one and only
When He comes
When He comes
Glorified and transformed I'll arise at His call, I'll be ready
When He comes
When He comes

[Chorus:]
And He'll plant His Beautiful feet upon this mountain
And the dead of all the ages who believed on Him will rise
And I'll be one I'll be one in the first Resurrection
When He comes
When He comes
When He comes

"When He Reached Down His Hand For Me"

"When He Reached Down His Hand For Me"



(When he reached down his hand for me)
Once my soul was astray from the heavenly way I was wretched and vile as could be
But my Saviour in love gave me peace from above
When he reached down his hand for me
When he reached down his hand for me when he reached way down for me
I was lost and undone without my God or his son
When he reached down his hand for me

I was near to despair when he came to me there
And he showed me that I could be free
Then he lifted my feet gave me gladness complete
When he reached down his hand for me
When he reached down...

"When I Look"

"When I Look"


[Johnny Cash:]
When I look beyond the river
And I look beyond the sky
When I look beyond the sunset
All I can see is you and I

I believe that sweethearts up in glory
Go together everywhere
I believe the angels tell us stories
And they’ll have golden wings to wear
I believe that singers just keep on singing
[June Carter:] In a land where no one ever cries

[Both:]
And when I look beyond the river
And I look beyond the sky
When I’m looking at forever
All I can see is you and I

[Johnny:] We’ve all been through our springs and summers
We learned to crawl, walk, and run
[June:] I’m looking forward to the winter
[Johnny:] When all these earthly songs are sung

[Both:]
And when I look beyond the river
And I look beyond the sky
When I’m looking at forever
All I can see is you and I

When I look beyond the river
And I look beyond the sky
When I’m looking at forever
All I can see is you and I
When I look beyond the river

"When I Take My Vacation In Heaven"

"When I Take My Vacation In Heaven"



There are those who are taking vacations
To the mountains the lakes and the sea
Where they rest from their cares and their troubles
What a wonderful time that must be

But it seems not my lot to be like them
I must toil through the heat and the cold
Seekin' out the lost sheep on a mountain
Bringing wanderers back to the fold

But when I take my vacation in Heaven
What a wonderful time that will be
Hearing concerts by the Heavenly chorus
And the face of my Saviour I'll see

Sitting down on the banks of the river
'Neath the shade of the evergreen tree
There I'll rest from my burdens forever
Won't you take your vacation with me

Sitting down on the banks of the river
Under the shade of the evergreen tree
There I'll rest from my burdens forever
Won't you take your vacation with me

"When I've Learned Enough To Die"

"When I've Learned Enough To Die"



(When I've learned enough to really live
I'll be old enough to die old enough to die)

I've met the Master on my knees
I was tested I was tried
I've seen the God of heaven
Paint the fields and country side

I've been the husband of one wife
Heard my newborn baby cry
But when I've learned enough to really live
I'll be old enough to die old enough to die

I've always been a hard working man
No stopping place have I found
But when I'm tired I'm still inspired
At night when I lie down

I've learned to kinda like this earth
Some time I wonder why
Cause when I've learned enough to really live
I'll be old enough to die

Old enough to die
(When I've learned enough to really live
I'll be old enough to die old enough to die)

I've always been a hard working man
No stopping place have I found
But when I'm tired I'm still inspired
At night when I lie down

I've learned to kinda like this earth
Some time I wonder why
Cause when I've learned enough to really live
I'll be old enough to die
Old enough to die

"When It's Springtime In Alaska"

"When It's Springtime In Alaska"



I mushed from Port Barrol through a blizzard of snow
Been out prospecting for two years or so
Pulled into Fairbanks, the city was a boon
So I took a little stroll to the Red Dog Saloon

When I walked in the door, the music was clear
Prettiest voice I had heard in two years
The song she kept singing would make a man's blood run cold
When it's springtime in Alaska, it's forty below

It was red headed Luie that was singing so sweet
I reached down and took the snow packs off of my feet
I reached for the gal that was singing the tune
We did the Eskimo hop all around the saloon

Where the caribou crawl and the grizzly bear hug
We did our dance on a Kodiak rug
The song she kept singing would make a man's blood run cold
When it's springtime in Alaska, it's forty below

Well, I was as innocent as I could be
I didn't know that Luie was big Ed's wife to be
He took out his knife and he gave it a throw
When it's springtime in Alaska, I'll be six feet below

"When Papa Played The Dobro"

"When Papa Played The Dobro"



My papa was a hobo when they delivered me
We didn't have a doctor cause he couldn't pay the fee
But when the goin' got too bad to ease his misery
Papa played the dobro this a way and he'd go

When company would come around he kept the dobro hid
He knew he couldn't play the way the other players did
Why the guitar's resonator was a gallon bucket lid
But papa played the dobro this a way and he'd go

Well now that papa's gone away it's hanging by the flue
The top of it's rusted and the strings're rusty too
It won't ever sound the way that it did when it was new
When papa played the dobro this a way and he'd go

"When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder"

"When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder"



When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound and time shall be no more
And the morning breaks eternal bright and fair
When the saved diverse shall gather over on the other shore
And the roll is called up yonder I'll be there
When the roll is called up yonder when the roll is called up yonder
When the roll is called up yonder when the roll is called up yonder I'll be there

Let us lay before the Master from the dawn till setting sun
Let us talk of all his wonderous love and care
And when all of life is over and our work on earth is done
When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there
When the roll is called up yonder...
(When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there)

"When You're Twenty-One"

"When You're Twenty-One"



It was Christmas Eve the night your poor Maw died son
And I reckon she prayed all of her life that she could raise you to be twenty-one
Me and you never moved into town boy we just kept on livin' out here
Aw and life's been good and bad Son for the past twenty-one years
Oh I remember now when you were a little fella and I used to take my boy to church
And when you sang the Christmas carols with the other boys oh it gave Daddy's heart a jerk
Why you sounded a lot like a little angel Boy
And to Papa you sure looked sweet
Even though your little ragged britches came half way to your skinny little knees
Oh and it made your Poppa proud boy and it filled my ole heart with joy
The Preacher'd step down and he'd pat your head and he say
My my got yourself a fine little boy
Well maybe my life down here's about over boy
Maybe my days on earth's about done
Maybe now I'll see your Mama and live with the Lord boy
But Merry Christmas to you and a happy birthday Son

"Where Did We Go Right"
(with June Carter & Family)

"Where Did We Go Right"
(with June Carter & Family)



In a world where everybody's fallin' apart
One by one, heart by heart
You and I stay together and we never even try
Side by side in a world turned upside down

Our love keeps spinnin' around
And you know it makes me wonder
As a restaurant for their lives
Where did we go right?
Where did we go right?

At a time when all the world is searchin' for truth
His love for you will even prove
And what we have is what everybody's tryin' to find
Peace of mind in a world turned upside down

Our love keeps spinnin' around
And you know it makes me wonder
As a restaurant for their lives
Where did we go right?
Where did we go right?

So many wrongs, so many lovers
I wish they all could know
What we've found in one another

In a world turned upside down
Our love keep spinnin' around
And you know it makes me wonder
As a restaurant for their lives
Where did we go right?
Where did we go right?
Where did we go right?
