1.
There are mansions high, there are mansions wide way up in the glory land,
There are mansions fiiled with jasper of wondrous beauty grand,
I've a mansion high prepared for me, 'twas built by hands divine,
But i know my mother's mansion is higher than mine.
Chorus
I know my mother's mansion is higher than mine,
Her mansion is many stories high, a gift of heaven divine,
There's a room for every tear she shed in this world she left behind,
And I know my mother's mansion is higher than mine.
2.
Yes, Jesus went and prepared a place just like He said He'd do,
He built for me a mansion, and one for others too,
And if her home was measured by her precious love divine,
I know my mother's mansion is higher than mine.
Fantastic song, and one that hit close to home with me. Thanks for asking about it
