heaven now is in view, heaven now is in view, I'm a child of the king and a millionaire too

[scsusan]

anyone know this song?

[Homeward Bound]

Are part of the words
The next mountain I climb, I just might find, sweet heaven in view

[Guest]

Is this the song you are looking for? The title is I'm Going To Reach Heaven

I'M GOING TO REACH HEAVEN

I've read in the Bible of how saints in the past
Held fast to God's promise with their faith put to test
I know they had hold of a powerful hand
Cause in the midst of the storms when they should have gone down
they found strength to stand.

CHORUS
So let the flood waters roll let the storm winds blow
Let everything hell has tear at my soul
It may hinder me bring me down on my knees
But that's as far as I go
Not a battle been lost on that old rugged cross
I'm going to reach Heaven no matter the cost
The next mountain I climb I just might find
sweet Heaven in view.

These dark stormy days that we're living in
Are bound to shake us time and again
But the same Grace He gave them He has given to me
And that same mighty hand that caused them to stand still gives victory

hi susan, I saw your post and couldn't get it out of my head so, by chance, I checked an old hymn book that I have that was copyrighted back in 1954 and this was what I found. I hope this is the right song that you where looking for.

Heaven Now Is In View

Verse: 1
As I travel with Jesus, (on the bright way),
ever trusting his promise, (happy each day),
in his love I'm rejoicing, (praising his name),
as I sing this glad song,
for he tells me of heaven, (home of the blest),
that eternal bright city,(city of rest),
where the river of life, flows so gently along.

Chorus:
Heaven now is in view, heaven now is in view,
I'm a child of the king, and a millionaire too,
clouds have rifted above, and the light has come through,
praise the wonderful dove, heaven now is in view.

Verse: 2
You may call me old-fashioned, (just as you please),
when I mention the Savior, (down on my knees),
but I'll ever keep walking, (walking each day),
in the light of his love,
you may lay up your treasures, (silver and gold),
where the rust is decaying, (soon they will mold),
but I'd rather lay mine, in that city above.

Verse: 3
John beheld that bright city, (so we are told),
with it's jasper walls gleaming, (streets of pure gold),
yes he saw it descending, (coming so near),
what a wonderful sight,
and he told of the splendor, (all of it's own),
of the beautiful rainbow, (over the throne),
that forever will shine, in that city of light.

[Horatio]

heaven now is in view,
heaven now is in view,
I'm a child of the K-I-N-G
and a millionaire too
When I look up A-B-O-V-E
and the message shines through
heaven now is in view my God
heaven now is in view.
