V1:
Sometimes it seems the highway of life is never-ending
But the hands on that ol’ clock just keep on spinning, spinning, spinning
The time is drawing nearer…minute by minute
We’re gonna have a new life, and I can’t wait to be in it!
Chorus:
We’re gettin’ close to Glory, on this glory road
Gonna leave our heavy load behind
We must be getting nearer to our Heavenly Home
Any day could be that second coming time
The farther that we go, the more we’re filled with hope
The signs we see around us tell us so
Now there’s no need to doubt it
God told us all about it
We’re gettin’ close to Glory, on this glory road
V2:
Until He comes we’ll watch and wait with great anticipation
When our joy will be complete, and then we’ll have a celebration
So we’re looking to the Heavens, list’ning for that trumpet
Then we’ll join with all God’s children, feasting at that vic’try banquet!
Chorus:
Bridge:
You ask me how we know we’re ready for that great day
We’ve trusted in the blood of Christ, and He washed our sins away!
Chorus
