ONE DAY I WAS WALKING DOWN SIN'S LONESOME ROAD
MY LIFE WAS ALL TROUBLED AND HEAVY MY LOAD
THEN I HEARD ABOUT JESUS AND WHAT HE COULD DO
THEN I CRIED OUT FOR MERCY IT WAS THEN I PRAYED THRU
CHORUS
OH LORD I'M SO HAPPY
LORD I AM SO HAPPY
THAT I LEARNED TO PRAY
PRAY I LEARNED TO PRAY
I'M HEADED FOR HEAVEN
I'M HEADED FOR HEAVEN
I'M WELL ON MY WAY
I'M WELL ON MY WAY
I'VE CHOSEN THE WAY WITH
I'VE CHOSEN THE WAY WITH
THE LORD'S FAITHFUL FEW
I'LL STAY WITH THE FEW
YES I'VE STARTED FOR HEAVEN
I'VE STARTED FOR HEAVEN
AND I MEAN TO GO THRU
YES I'M GOING THRU.

OFT TIMES I GROW WEARY MY BODY GETS TIRED
I'M HOMESICK FOR HEAVEN TO BE WITH MY LORD
FOR HE'S BUILT ME A MANSION ALL SHINY AND NEW
YES I'M HOMESICK FOR HEAVEN AND I MEAN TO GO THRU
