Byen pa m pa isiba
Se pasajè mwen ye,
Menm si mwen malere
Men sa pa fè m anyen;
Jezi se trezò, avèk li mwen satisfè
Alelouya! m gen yon plas nan syèl la.

Kè
O! wi, m santi m kontan
Non mwen ekri nan syèl la
Menm si sou tè sa a
Mwen jwenn difikilte
Men sa pa fè m anyen
Jezi te pase plis
Alelouya! m gen yon plas nan syèl la.

Frè m yo nan Senyè a
Piga nou dekouraje;
Chemen an pa fasil
Pou n rive nan syèl la.
Mepri, pèsekisyon se sa ki sou wout la
Alelouya! yon jou sa va fini.

Pa okipe lemonn k ap rejwi jodi a,
Y ap fè anpil pwogrè
Men tout sa ap pase.
Nou Menm ki se Kretyen
Nou gen vi etènel
Alelouya! se kretyen yo ki rich.

My riches are not here below;
I am only a traveler.
Even if I am poor,
That does not bother me.
Jesus is my treasure; with Him I am satisfied.
Hallelujah! I have a place in heaven.

Chorus
Oh yes, I feel joy;
My name is written in heaven.
Even if on this earth
I face difficulties,
That does not bother me;
Jesus suffered far more.
Hallelujah! I have a place in heaven.

2
My brothers in the Lord,
Do not be discouraged.
The road is not easy
For us to reach heaven.
Contempt and persecution are on the way,
Hallelujah! one day it will end.

3
Do not focus on the world that rejoices today;
It is making much progress,
But all of that will pass away.
We who are Christians
Have eternal life.
Hallelujah! it is the Christians who are truly rich.
