The Other Side of Life

Emmylou Harris · Angel Band [Warner Bros] [1987]

(Alan O'Bryant)



Praise God I feel like singing

I'm on the other side of life now.



All my days of sorrow

And tears for my loved ones

I wish I could tell them the door that I feel

Though my body is weary

My soul is uplifted

My sins are forgiven and my Jesus is real.



Praise God I feel like singing

I'm on the other side of life now.



Though my eyes are dim

I see Heaven clearly

Though my voice grows feeble I sing just the same

In my heart there's a song

As I see the gates open

I'll sing forever my joyous refrain.



Praise God I feel like singing

I'm on the other side of life now

Praise God I feel like singing

I'm on the other side of life now...
