This song was written by Roscoe Reed, from Wellington Ohio. He wrote quite a few of the Insprations songs. He was a great man and my parents were very good friends of his. I remember falling asleep in a pile of coats at his house while my parents and some other people sang gospel songs into the night. Those were great memories. He painted a picture of heaven with words that made you feel like you were there already. I remember my dad saying that he never wanted money for writing those songs.
