Lyrics
Til I lay my burden down I’ll carry on
And reach the holiest of grounds I’ll sing my song
Till I reach my heavenly home
I’ll keep praying for the Kingdom come
I’ll keep trusting in Thy will be done
And carry on
Til I cross that river wide I’ll labor on
Milk and honey on the other side; I’ll sing my song
Till I see my Savior’s face
And greet the saints at heaven’s gate
These good things are gonna have to wait
While I labor on
Life‘s a strange reality
You’ve gotta find a little faith
Death’s a big old mystery
At the trumpet we’ll awake
Til all tears are wiped away I'll journey on
Cares and sorrow no more dismay; I'll sing my song
Oh the land of perfect rest
One big family that is blessed
Heaven on earth - more or less
I’ll journey on; Alleluia. Amen.
