Somewhere just across the Jordan river, There is a place of ever lasting joy and peace, Where the tree of life is blooming there forever, And a crown of life is waiting there for me, That sounds like home to me, Like where I want to be There'll be no tears to fill our eyes again The hills will echo with the story As we sing of his grace and glory Where the saints of God will be, That sounds like home to me Now they say theres mansions there inside this city And that a crystal river flows right by a tree of life No pain, no dissapointments there will hurt us And Jesus himself will be the light That sounds like home to me, Like where I want to be There'll be no tears to fill our eyes again The hills will echo with the story As we sing of his grace and glory Where the saints of God will be, That sounds like home to me The hills will echo with the story As we sing of his grace and glory Where the saints of God will be, That sounds like home to me
