- 2The Father's house, the mansions fair,My home shall for ever be;But one sweet word from the Lord I loveI know will make heav'n for me.Heaven for me,(Heaven for me, oh, it will be!) oh, it will be!(Heaven for me, oh, it will be!)When Jesus whispers(When Jesus gives a welcome to me,) a welcome to me;(A smile and a welcome to me, to me;)Heaven for me,(Heaven for me, oh, it will be!) oh, it will be!(Heaven for me, oh, it will be!)When Jesus whispers(When Jesus gives a welcome to me,) a welcome to me.(A smile and a welcome to me.)
- 3He saved me from my lost estate,From sin He has set me free,And just to see Him when He shall comeI know will be heav'n for me.Heaven for me,(Heaven for me, oh, it will be!) oh, it will be!(Heaven for me, oh, it will be!)When Jesus whispers(When Jesus gives a welcome to me,) a welcome to me;(A smile and a welcome to me, to me;)Heaven for me,(Heaven for me, oh, it will be!) oh, it will be!(Heaven for me, oh, it will be!)When Jesus whispers(When Jesus gives a welcome to me,) a welcome to me.(A smile and a welcome to me.)
