What are they doing in heaven today
My sin and my sorrow have all washed away
Peace be bound like a river, they say
What are they doing right now?

I'm thinking of friends who I used to know
They lived and they suffered in this world below
But now they're gone up to heaven, and I got to know
What are they doing right now?

What are they doing in heaven today
My sin and my sorrow have all washed away
Peace be bound like a river, they say
What are they doing right now?

There are those who were poor and often despised
They look up to heaven through tear-blinded eyes
But the people heedless, deaf to their cries
What are they doing right now?

What are they doing in heaven today
My sin and my sorrow have all washed away
Peace be bound like a river, they say
What are they doing right now?
What are they doing right now?
