Verse 1:

Living in this world there is pain, grief, and strife,

but they tell me of a home of a much better life.

No more heartaches or tears, I'll cry no more,

only joy everlasting when I reach the other shore.



Chorus

In this Christian home of glory 

there remains a land of rest,

where my Savior's gone before me 

to fulfill my soul's request.



He is fixing up my mansion, 

where eternal life I'll stand, 

and He's going to take me 

to that holy, happy land.



Verse 2:

Living in this world there is pain, grief, and strife,

but they tell me of a home on the other side.

No more heartaches or tears, I'll cry no more,

only joy everlasting when I reach the other shore.



Chorus



Vamp:

There is rest for the weary 

on the other side of Jordan.



There is rest for the weary 

on the other side.
