I'm too near home with my Lord
To miss sweet heaven's reward.
I'm not returning to sin.
I've made my vow!
There's nothing to go back to.
Oh praise God, Heaven's in view.
I'm too near my heavenly home
To turn back now.
Just one glimpse inside the home gate,
See the friends and loved ones who wait
Will be worth whatever the cost
To make it through (it through)
I will not give up in the race
I'll continue by the Lord's grace.
I'm too near that wonderful home
beyond the blue.
