In my Father's House are many mansions,
I hope yours Is next to mine!
We'll see each other everyday
And have a wonderful time!
Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord!
We can raise our hands and pray.
He'll be right there with us all
As he Is here on earth each day!
We can walk the streets together
Can you Imagine how It will be?
There will be so many faces
Of old family members to se!
The flowers will be just beautiful, The streets be paved with gold, We can talk to each other across the fence While waving to friends of old.
We can raise our hands and Praise the Lord
Everyone will be doing the same,
We can sing and praise him all day long
And just lift up his name!
We won't have to spend all our days
Cooking, washing clothes, and cleaning our homes.
We'll be able to just chat and chat
Without the Internet or telephone!
We'll see Grandpa out there a fishing Grandma rocking babies all day long Those precious Innocent babies, She's singing them a song.
Why there's Mary standing there Right next to Jesus' throne. There holding the little baby You never got to see at home.
Those people we've heard of all our lives We'll see walking down the street, We con stop and sing with oil of them While kneeling at His feet.
I just can't even Imagine What It will be like for us to see All those special people Who got to Heaven way before me.
In my Father's House are many mansion's
I hope yours Is next to mine,
We'll see each other everyday
And have such a wonderful time!
