All Day Dinner
by Allison Durham Speer

Album: Break This Heart

Everybody dreams about a home beyond the stars
Where we float around on snowy clouds
And roam through fields of flowers
When we walk through the pearly gates
You just might be surprised
The noise, the crowds, the singing
As we harmonize

Chorus:
We'll all sing a new song
Lord, what a mornin'
Can't wait to hear that melody
He's written a new scale
Do-Re-Me-Fa-So-La-Te-Do-No,
Can't you hear the heavenly harmony
We'll sing ten octaves lover than any bass singer's dream
Music will rise, soar to the skies, unlimited highs
Eternal gospel singin', all day dinner on the ground

Gabriel, blow your trumpet, go on, take a ride
David, strum your golden harp, it sounds so nice
Mariam (go ahead girl!) play the tambourine
The orchestra's really cookin' while the children sing
We might sing it country for a thousand years
Then progress to opera for the cultured ones there
The king, perhaps, will then conduct a jubilee band
Then we'll march around the city of this musical land

Repeat chorus

Please pass the biscuits
All day dinner on the…
Munchin' concord grapes and angel food cakes
All day dinner on the…
Meet you in the mornin' with a "How do you do?"
At that all day dinner on the ground
Oh yeah!
