Glory Land // how thankful for Jesus I am

Many years I've been looking for a place to call home

But I fail here to find it, so I must travel on

I don't care for fine mansions on earths sinking sand

Lord, build me a cabin in the corner of Glory Land

Yes, build me just a cabin in the corner of Glory Land

In the shade of the tree of life that it may ever stand

So I can just hear the angels sing and shake Jesus' hand

Lord, build me a cabin in the corner of Glory Land

~

I was lost but Jesus saved me

He gave His life on Calvary's tree

Though I fail Him, He still loves me

Through His grace I've been set free

No I don't deserve a mansion

For I was born a sinful man

No I don't deserve a mansion

But Jesus built a home for me in Glory Land

It was our sins that He died for

For all mankind, He paid the price

Who are we that He should love us

Enough to give His life

No I don't deserve a mansion

For I was born a sinful man

No I don't deserve a mansion

But Jesus built a home for me in Glory Land

Some days I am so thankful for my Jesus, my eyes sting with tears. These two songs by my favorite male singer, Charley Pride, just hit the spot in my heart.
