My Heavenly Home Is Bright And Fair,
I Feel Like Traveling On,
No Pain, Nor Death Can Enter There,
I Feel Like Traveling On.

Yes, I Feel Like Traveling On,
I Feel Like Traveling On;
My Heavenly Home Is Bright And Fair,
I Feel Like Traveling On.

Its Glittering Towers The Sun Outshine,
I Feel Like Traveling On;
That Heavenly Mansion Shall Be Mine,
I Feel Like Traveling On.

Let Others Seek A Home Below,
I Feel Like Traveling On;
Which Flames Devour, Or Waves Over Flow,
I Feel Like Traveling On.

The Lord Has Been So Good To Me,
I Feel Like Traveling On;
Until That Blessed Home I See,
I Feel Like Traveling On.
