Lyrics
Chorus
(Up in paradise valley) Up in the beautiful paradise valley, By the side of the river of life, (of the river of life, Up in paradise valley,) Up in paradise valley, the wonderful valley, We'll be free from all pain and all strife; (from all pain and all strife; There we'll live) There we'll live in the garden, (in the garden,) 'Neath the shade of the evergreen tree, (of the evergreen tree,) How I long for the paradise valley, (for the paradise valley,) Where the beauty of heaven I'll see. (beauty of heaven I'll see.)
Verse 1
As I travel thru life, with its trouble and strife, I've a glorious hope to give cheer on the way; Soon my toils will be o'er and I'll rest on that shore, Where the night has been turned into day.
Verse 2
As I roam the hillside, or I list to the tide, As I pluck the sweet flowers that grow in the dale; A faint picture is there of a land bright and fair, Where perennial flowers ne'er fail.
Verse 3
Tho' your garden is rare, it is naught to compare With the flowers that bloom in the garden above, In the midst of it grows, Sharon's perfect sweet Rose; 'Tis the wonderful Flower we love.
