it's way up in the kingdom
Way back up in glory, keep tellin' you
it's way up in the kingdom
You'll look for me and I'll be gone
I'm goin' to heaven to sing
Way down in my bosom, keep tellin' you
it's way down in my bosom
When I get lonesome, sad and blue
And I don't know just what to do
I go down on my bent good knees
I tell operator to give me long distance
Tell long -distant to give me heaven
Then I'll tell heaven I want my
Jesus, I'll tell him my trouble
Oh, I'm glad he heard my cry
Let me come home now, I'm satisfied
I'll move on down around his throne
I just wanna look around,
Meshach, not a bend to go
Then I'll move on down by the bay and pool
Joshua say, son, don't move
Goin' on, sit down, my brother
We'll begin to talk things over
Oh, what a time we'll have that day
Oh, mother, I know you've been waitin'
Oh, I know you've been watchin' for me
You know my heels were hard to climb
But I know you're prayin'
But I stayed on it till I satisfied
I love my mother because she's mine
