I'm Too Near My Heavenly Home A
I've been traveling here in this life
With its heartaches, trouble and strife.
Sometimes Satan tries to tell me to turn aside
I say "Satan, get thee behind." No returning in me you'll find,
I'm too near my heavenly home where I'll abide.
I'm too near home with my Lord To miss sweet heaven's reward.
I'm not returning to sin. I've made my vow!
There's nothing to go back to. Oh praise God, Heaven's in view.
I'm too near my heavenly home To turn back now.
Just one glimpse inside the home gate,
See the friends and loved ones who wait
Will be worth whatever the cost To make it through (it through)
I will not give up in the race I'll continue by the Lord's grace.
I'm too near that wonderful home beyond the blue.
