i sing this all the time at my church
I may never go to paris
I may never go to rome
I may never see great cities
that this world may find its own
I may never cross the ocean
or climb a mountain high
but the greatest sight
I long to see
it means much more to me
ill see the skies unfold
my eyes behold the king of glory come down
and ill see the gates of pearl
swing open wide and ill just step in side
such rare beauty shall surround me
a gem set wall of jasper too
and when I think of such great sites to see
it means much more to me
there are people making ready
for a journey far away
they may plan to take possessions
when they leave on that final day
oh but im going on a journey
where no mortal has ever been
and this land in which
I long to see
it means much more to me
repeat chorus
