What Are They Doin' In Heaven

I’m thinking of friends whom I used to know,
Who lived, lived down here and suffered
In this broken up world below
But they’ve gone off to heaven, but I, I just want to know
Ooh, what, what, what, what are they doing
What are they doing there now?
Yeah, talking about what?
What, what, what are they dong
I’m wondering in myself what are they doing there now
Oh, what are they doing in heaven today,
Where sin and sorrow are all done away?
Peace abounds like a river, they say.
But what are they doing there now?
There’s some whose hearts
Were burdened with care
They paid for their moment with fighting and tears
But they clung to the cross trembling in fear
But what are they doing there now?
What are they doing in heaven today,
Where sin and sorrow are all done away?
Peace abounds like a river, they say.
What are they doing there now?
And there’s some whose bodies were full of disease
Physicians and doctors couldn’t give them much ease
But they suffered 'til death brought a final release
But what are they doing there now?
What are they doing in heaven today,
Where sin and sorrow are all done away?
Peace abounds like a river, they say.
What are they doing there now?
There’s some who were poor and often despised
They looked up to heaven with tear-blinded eyes
While people were heedless and deaf to their cries
But what are they doing there now?
What are they doing in heaven today,
Where sin and sorrow are all done away?
Peace abounds like a river, they say.
What are they doing there now?
What are they doing in heaven today,
Where sin and sorrow are all done away?
Peace abounds like a river, they say.
What are they doing there now?
