i'm almost home

[kychristian]

i heard a group singing this song but i can't seem to find it anywhere. i've got the chorus and the 2nd verse...any help would be appreciated

chorus:
im almost home, im almost home
ive got a mansion waiting and im almost home
im almost home, im almost home
ive got a mansion waiting and im almost home

2nd verse:
they took the prophet john out on the isle to die
but he had a good connection with the man up in the sky
he saw the new jerusalem and and he knew he wasnt alone
he said its not so hard to die when you can see your home


i'm needing the first and third verses

Hi kychristian,

I think these are the lyrics you need.

Chorus
I'm almost home, I'm almost home,
I've got a mansion waiting and I'm almost home.
I'm almost home, I'm almost home,
I've got a mansion waiting and I'm almost home.

1,
They took the Apostle Peter, and stoned him o'er and o'er,
But he would not deny the Lord as he had done before,
They hung him by his feet to die, they thought he was alone,
He turned his face toward heaven and said, I'm almost home.

2.
They took the prophet John out on the isle to die,
But he had good connections with that Man up in the sky,
God showed him the new Jerusalem, they thought he was alone,
He said. It's not so hard to die when I can see my home.

3.
Oh Lord, keep me reminded, I'm trusting in that vow,
I've got a mansion waiting, I can almost see it now,
Although they may revile me, I know I'm not alone,
I'm nearly done my journey and I'm almost home.

Hope it helps. God bless!
Steve

I believe a verse is missing if I remember correctly it goes like this:

We read about ol' Stephen, on how he preached the word,
He called the people hypocrites, cause they denied the Lord,
They took him out and stoned him, but he was there alone,
He look up toward Heaven and, said I'm almost home.
