What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be (Ayy)

[Verse 1]
Anybody else tired of being tired
Anybody else worn out from the race
Come on now, lift your head a little higher
It won't be long before we leave this place (Ayy)
Hard times make your heart keep forgetting
We're here for now, yeah, but we're not here to stay
Our home is a place called Heaven
And it won't be long before we leave this place (Ayy)


[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on
I know the road is looking so long
But soon these troubles will be long gone, yeah
If you believe it let me hear you say

[Chorus]
What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be
When the trumpet sounds and the clouds divide
Oh, hallelujah gonna wave goodbye
What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be
When my Jesus' face I finally see
Oh, what a day, what a day that will be

[Verse 2]
Gonna trade these trials for a mansion
Gonna trade these tears for a song
Holy, holy, holy
All God's children gonna sing along

[Pre-Chorus]
So, hold on (Hold on)
I know the road is looking so long (So long)
But soon these troubles will be long gone (Long gone)
If you believe it let me hear you say (Yeah)

[Chorus]
What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be
When the trumpet sounds and the clouds divide
Oh, hallelujah gonna wave goodbye
What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be
When my Jesus' face I finally see
Oh, what a day, what a day that will be

[Bridge]
No more burdens, no more pain (No more pain)
No more division, no more hate (No more hate)
No more sickness, no more broken
There's only healing where we're going
No more sorrow on that day
Every question will be answered
Every tear will be wiped away (Yeah)

[Chorus]
What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be
When the trumpet sounds and the clouds divide
Oh, hallelujah gonna wave goodbye
What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be
When my Jesus' face I finally see
Oh, what a day
Oh, what a day
What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be (What a day that will be)
When the trumpet sounds and the clouds divide
Oh, hallelujah gonna wave goodbye
What a day, what a day, what a day
What a day, what a day that will be
When my Jesus' face I finally see
Oh, what a day, what a day that will be
