Parton, Dolly - There Lyrics




There is a place where the sun's always glowing
Take me there, won't you take me there
Meadows grow green near the streams gently flowing
Take me there, won't you take me there
A city of riches beyond comprehension
Take me there, won't you take me there
Streets are of gold, gates of pearl, brilliant mansions
Take me there, won't you take me there

Take me and show me this rare place you speak of
Take me there, won't you take me there
To this land of plenty where there is complete love
Take me there, won't you take me there

At the foot of the throne the kingdom rejoices
Take me there, won't you take me there
The angels are singing His praise with their voices
Hallelujah, hallelujah take me there

Peace, joy and love linger on through the ages
Take me there, won't you take me there
Lambs lay with lions and lions with babies
Take me there, won't you take me there

Take me and show me this rare place you speak of
Take me there, won't you take me there
To this land of plenty where there is complete love
Take me there, I can't take you there

But there is a church where they teach all about it
Take me there, won't you take me there
There is a book we must not be without it
Take me there, I will read with you there

There is an altar where sins are forgiven
Take me there, yes I'll kneel with you there
We'll find there the God of Eternal Living
Take me there, He will take you there

There is no sorrow and no heartache there
There is no crying and no dying there
Won't you take me there, won't you take me there
Hallelujah won't you take me there

    She's an 👼💕 this and Light of a Clear Blue Morning were my faves as a 9-10 yr old in the early 80s! Of her newer stuff, I love Travelin' Thru from "Transamerica". So upbeat, hopeful and gentle!

    When I first played this song when I bought the New Harvest First Gathering album, I was so pleased with the whole album I know every word and sound on this album, Playing these songs in f2016 I cannot believe just how good they still sound today. God Dolly's so good.

    Thanks Dolly for providing the soundtrack to my life.

    I find that this song has been on my mind so I had to come to the Well, I am not a religious person but when Dolly Parton sings an inspirational spiritual tune like this it makes you believe in something higher than self.
