When I get Home

1. since i've heard about a bet-ter Home, i would leave this old world with all it owns, just slip away, most any day to heaven's shore, i'll find sweet rest beyond the gate for-ever more.

Chorus:

YES, I'LL RE-JOICE, OH PRAISE THE LORD, SOME SWEET DAY,
WHEN I WALK UP THE GREAT MILKY WAY,
GOODBYE OLD WORLD, GOOD MORNING THERE-BEFORE THE THRONE
WHAT A SINGING THERE WILL BE, WHEN IGET HOME!!!

2. When i move up there to settle down, when i step inside the gates to look around, i'll go at least a million years to view the throne, so many friends i'll go to see when i get home!!

REPEAT CHORUS:

Another verse:

Oh, Lord hear my prayer before I leave; may I live so my friends will follow me. The little home you gave to me while here below; I'd like to see each one of them when life is o'er.

O Lord hear my prayer before i leave; may i live so my friends will follow me. The little ones you gave to me while here below; I want to see each one of them when I get home.

When I Get Home

Since I've , heard about, a better home
I would leave. this old world. with all it owns
Just slip away, most in any day, to Heaven's shore
I'd find sweet rest, beyond the gates, forever more

Yes, I'll be gone, oh praise the Lord, some sweet day
I'm gonna walk up the Great Milky Way
Goodbye old world, Good morning there, before the throne
Oh what a scene, that will be, when I get home

When I, move up there, to settle down
When I step, inside the gate to look around
I want at least, a billion years, to view the throne
So many friends, I want to see, when I get home

Chorus and Second verse again

Yes I'll be gone, oh praise the Lord, some sweet day
I'm gonna walk, up the Great Milky Way
Goodbye old world, Good morning there, before the throne
Oh what a scene, that will be, when I get home
