I
MY EYES HAVEN'T SEEN NOR HAVE MY EARS HEARD
WHAT THE FATHER HAS IN STORE
BUT WHEN I HEAR THE SONG OF A SWEET SINGING BIRD
I'M CLOSER THAN I'VE BEEN BEFORE.
TO THAT HEAVENLY HOME BUILT OF GOD ALONE
ACCORDING TO HIS PERFECT PLAN.
WHERE THE ONLY THING THERE THAT'S BEEN MADE BY MAN
ARE THE SCARS IN THE HANDS OF JESUS.
II
WHEN I SEE A MOUNTAIN COVERED WITH SNOW
FALLING FROM HEAVEN ABOVE.
IT MAKES ME FEEL SMALL HARDLY NOTHING AT ALL
TO KNOW THAT I'LL BE A PART OF
THAT MANSION WORLD WHERE THE GATES OF PEARL
ARE OPENED BY AN ANGLE'S HAND.
AND THE ONLY THING THERE THAT'S BEEN MADE BY MAN
ARE THE SCARS IN THE HANDS OF JESUS.
CHORUS
YES I'M HEADED FOR A HOME BUILT OF GOD ALONE
HALLELUJAH PRAISE GOD I AM.
WHERE THE ONLY THING THERE THAT'S BEEN MADE BY MAN
ARE THE SCARS IN THE HANDS OF JESUS.
