Introduction:
C
There are those who are taking vacations
F C
To the mountains the lakes and the sea
Where they rest from their cares and their troubles
D7 G7
What a wonderful time that must be
C G7 C
But it seems not my lot to be like them
F C
I must toil through the heat and the cold
Seeking out the lost sheep on a mountain
D7 G7 C
Bringing wanderers back to the fold
But when I take my vacation in heaven
F C
What a wonderful time that will be
Hearing concerts by the heavenly Chorus
D7 G7
And the face of my Savior I'll see
C G7 C
Sitting down on the banks of the river
F C
Neath the shade of the evergreen tree
There I'll rest from my burdens forever
D7 G7 C
Won't you take your vacation with me
C G7 C
Sitting down on the banks of the river
F C
Neath the shade of the evergreen tree
There I'll rest from my burdens forever
D7 G7 C
Won't you take your vacation with me
