Lord You’ve prepared a place for me
a home to call my own
built a mansion on heavenly soil
like I have never known
____
this heavenly place where we shall dwell
sharing our love much more
visiting friends You’ve called by name
great things shall be in store
____
a land where light shall never dim
Your glory in array
brighter than the brightest nova
all darkness falls away
____
revealed beauty of your nature
it’s everywhere one sees
from the smallest thing that was made
to greater things that be
____
my home awaits my coming there
excited one should pray
for preparation to come home
in service every day
____
by doing God’s will upon the earth
that’s why we still remain
bound to mortality in grace
from evil one refrains
____
one should prepare to make it home
where treasures stored are found
through all eternity with God
pure love at home abounds
