Now I've been working all my life but it all has been in vain I've tried to live for Satan and the whole wide world to gain But when I got down on my knees I could hear my Saviour say Come unto me I'll give you rest thank God I'm on my way
I'm on my way to heaven I'm gonna travel on We'll shout and sing his praises up there around the throne I want to shake my Saviour's hand and hear him say well done And when I hear him say these words I know my race is won
[ harmonica - dobro ] No matter what we try to do while here on earth we roam We can't forget our Saviour and live our life alone You'll have to run to Jesus and let him make a way I feel it deep down in my soul thank God I'm on my way
Dear friend if you are lost in sin your soul's not satisfied Don't try to make a way yourself and leave the Lord outside Just give your heart to Jesus and then you'll hear him say Come unto me I'll give you rest thank God I'm on my way
