lyrics

When I hear that trumpet sound
I will lay my burdens down
I will lay them deep into the ground
Then I’ll know that I am glory bound

I’ll be travelin’ far from home
But I won’t be lookin’ for to roam
I’ll be crossin’ o’er the great divide
In a better home soon I will reside

Hallelujah

When I’m in my restin’ place
I’ll look on my mother’s face
Never more will I have to know
All the loneliness that plagues me so

So I’m waitin’ for that train to come
And I know where she’s comin’ from
Listen, can you hear her on the track
When I board I won’t be lookin’ back

Hallelujah
