CHORUS: We're just rehearsing! we're just rehearsing! And someday we'll sing together in a band around God's throne. This old world (cannot reward us) cannot reward us (this old world cannot reward us) We are just (just) just rehearsing for that singing up Home.
This old world is nothing but a dressing place Where we make preparations to spend an endless day. Until the curtain opens and it's thy time to sing, We are just rehearsing songs of praise to the King.
When I sing of Jesus, of His saving grace, I feel His blessed presence, my Soul He does embrace. Sometimes I get so happy I forget my song, To know I've been invited to that singing up Home.
We'll sing the song of Moses with words of sweetest praise To God and all His glory; we'll see Him face to face And hear the voices ringing of loved ones who are gone. We'll blend our voice with angels in that singing up Home.
