The road to glory seems so long,
And sorrows often take my song;
Chorus:
I'm going to a better land,
Where troubles are unknown.
All sorrows will be gone,
We'll sing around the throne in sweet accord,
Adoring Jesus our dear Lord.
From Jesus' side I will not stray,
I know he'll guide me all the way.
(Chorus)
I know it is not very far
To heaven where my treasure are.
(Chorus)
