Over There

[bwelch88]

I want to know who wrote this song: I know the lyrics, but I'm trying to find a recording of the song and I keep finding other songs, but not the one I want. There is one broken link to some sort of RealAudio file that I've found on an old Angelfire site...

I am going over yonder to that heavenly home
Where my Jesus is awaiting me beside that shining throne
And when he calls my number I will leave this earthly ground
I'll sing and shout for without a doubt my soul is homeward bound.

Chorus:
I am going, going over there, over on that crystal sea
Over there, over there, in the morning I will be
I will forever be with my Lord and the loved ones gone before
I will be singing all around God's throne, over on that beautiful shore.

Children now get ready, pack your bags its time to go
It won't be long til we get home to leave this world below
So keep your eyes on the eastern skies for his coming is at hand
I'm standing steady crying "Lord, I'm ready to enter that promised land"

Chorus again
