Hymn Lyrics Search - Name That Hymn

Love this also a aged old man requested this song have to rewrite some of the words but we'll make it work. Thanks for helping, God Bless You.

Does anyone have the chords for this song? My grandma just pasted away and i would like to sing this at her funeral.

the rest of that Verse at the top is: That Jesus has gone to prepare

I had this on tape but don't remember who was singing it. We had a young man sing it in church this week-end. It is a beautiful song and brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.

Does anyone have the sound track of this

Verse 2
Her hands were so feeble
Her voice was so low
But she still had a smile on her face
She said "I hear singing
O they're waiting for me"
Then she looked up to Heaven and said


The version I know in Verse 2 is

Her hand were feeble
Her body so weak
But she still had a smile on her face
She said I hear singing
They're coming for me
She looked up to heaven and said
Oh look what i traded for a mansion
Oh look what im leavin behind
Oh look who'll be there to meet me
When i step into Gods paradise
Im leaving behing all my sarrows
Im leaving behind all myt cares
I've traded them all for a mansion
That Jesus has gone to prepare.

I sang this song to my Mom while she was dying, this song has always givin me comfort.

There was a duet sung by Dave Eubanks and Tim Moxley of this song. I have it on a cassette tape so it was obviously made at least 15 years ago. They do a good rendition of it.

It was written by Paul Chitwood of Winfield Tn. His wife passed away from cancer many years ago and he and his boys sing it.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.
