Last Night I Dreamed of Heaven

Hank Williams Sr. · The Complete Hank Williams [Mercury Nashville] [1998]

(Hank Williams)



Last night I dreamed of heaven

And I saw my mother there

Standing with all the angels

On a golden stair.



I thought I heard her whisper

Welcome home my boy

Last night I dreamed of Heaven

And it filled my heart with joy.



I heard the angels singing

Songs of peace and rest

And then there was a silence

Each eye looked toward the west.



There sat my Saviour

On His golden throne

Last night I dreamed of Heaven

My eternal home, sweet home.



Last night I dreamed of Heaven

That land so pure and sweet

And the joy within me

Made my glad heart weep.



I was there with my Saviour

Free from grief and strife

Last night I dreamed of Heaven

The land of eternal life.



I heard the angels singing

Songs of peace and rest

And then there was a silence

Each eye looked toward the west.



There sat my Saviour

On His golden throne

Last night I dreamed of Heaven

My eternal home, sweet home...
