When this evening sun goes down then in heaven I will be found, I will end life's other side when I cross the great divide. When this evening sun goes down, when I wear my starry crown, when I'll see a smiling face and rest in amazing grace. He will wipe away my tears, he will blind me to all my fears, then in joy I'll ever be bound, when this evening sun goes down. When this evening sun goes down, when they lay me 'neath the ground, when we'll meet, weep, and mourn, then I'll be in my heavenly home.
