I’ve a home prepared
Where the saints abide,
Just over in the glory land;
And I long to be by my Savior’s side,
Just over in the glory land.
Refrain
Just over in the glory land,
I’ll join the happy angel band,
Just over in the glory land;
Just over in the glory land,
There with the mighty host I’ll stand,
Just over in the glory land.
I am on my way
To those mansions fair,
Just over in the glory land;
There to sing God’s praise and His glory share;
Just over in the glory land.
Refrain
What a joyful thought
That my Lord I’ll see,
Just over in the glory land;
And with kindred saved, there forever be,
Just over in the glory land.
Refrain
With the blood washed throng
I will shout and sing,
Just over in the glory land;
Glad hosannas to Christ, the Lord and King,
Just over in the glory land.
