Lyrics No Depression in Heaven - The Carter Family

No Depression in Heaven

For fear the hearts of men are failing
For these are latter days we know
The Great Depression now is spreading
God’s word declared it would be so
I’m going where there’s no depression
To the lovely land that’s free from care
I’ll leave this world of toil and trouble
My home’s in Heaven, I’m going there
In that bright land, there’ll be no hunger
No orphan children crying for bread
No weeping widows, toil or struggle
No shrouds, no coffins, and no death
I’m going where there’s no depression
To the lovely land that’s free from care
I’ll leave this world of toil and trouble
My home’s in Heaven, I’m going there
This dark hour of midnight nearing
And tribulation time will come
The storms will hurl in midnight fear
And sweep lost millions to their doom
I’m going where there’s no depression
To the lovely land that’s free from care
I’ll leave this world of toil and trouble
My home’s in Heaven, I’m going there
