Jesus, my all, to Heaven has gone
To find a home in glory.
And I'll fix my hopes upon
To find a home in glory.
Chorus: Oh, glory, oh, glory.
There's room enough in Paradise,
To find a home in glory.
If you get there before I do,
And find a home in glory,
Look out for me; I'm coming, too,
To find a home in glory.
(Chorus)
I strike, I see, and I pursue
To find a home in glory.
In our old way, tell him I view
To find a home in glory.
(Chorus)
