What Are They Doing In Heaven Today? Lyrics - Bela Fleck & Abigail Washburn - Bela Fleck & Abigail Washburn

I'm thinkin' today of some friends that I know 

Who lived and suffered in this world below 

They've gone up to heaven, but I want to know, 

What are they doin' right now? 

CHORUS: 

What are they doin' in heaven today? 

Where sin and sorrow have all done away? 

Peace abounds like a river, they say. 

What are they doin' right now? 

There's some whose bodies were full of disease, 

Physicians and doctors couldn't give them much ease, 

They suffered 'til death brought a final release, 

But what are they doin' right now? 

CHORUS 

There's some who were poor and were often despised. 

They looked up to heaven with tear-blinded eyes. 

Others were healers and deaf to their cries. 

What are they doin' right now? 

CHORUS 

What are they doin' right now? 

What are they doin' right now?
