Bill & Gloria Gaither - Alaskan Homecoming
I'm workin' on a road
that leads to Glory.
I want to shake my Saviour’s hand.
I'm building my hope
from things eternal.
to Gloryland.
Each day I get so lonely
while living here below.
My Saviour’s waiting patiently
I'm planning
now
to go.
I want a firm foundation
that’s built with Gods own hand.
So
now I’ve started building
a road to Gloryland.
Oh listen to me sinners
Don’t you want to go?
You know we have no promise
of living here below.
You know he suffered
for our sins
and died
upon the cross.
For all who did believe on Him
their souls will not be lost.
And when this road is finished
I want to travel on.
I can hear the angels singin'
up there around the throne.
I want to see my mother
and take her by the hand.
As soon as I have finshed
the road to Gloryland.
