I Heard the Singing of the Army of Saints Lyrics

I heard the singing of the army of saints

Echoing their mighty voices

My heart rejoiced and I said: “Amen!”

As though I am in Paradise

Refrain:

As though I am in Paradise

And washed by the Precious Blood

I crossed Jordan River, I entered Canaan

As though I am in Paradise

How is it that people cannot comprehend 

The great glory that we received 

We crossed Jordan River and entered Canaan

As though we are in Paradise

How lovely it is to worship our Lord

And raise our voice with singing

We’re filled with the Spirit and joy, praising 

As though we are in Paradise 

We are awaiting the coming of the Lord

With trumpet sound and great glory

On the clouds we’ll meet our precious Savior 

And live with Him in Paradise
