Eternal Vacation

G                                C                      G
Some people are taking vacations traveling both far and near

                                          A7                D7
Never stopping to think about Jesus never seeming to have a care

G                                   C                               G
It seems that I cannot be like them while on earth life's burdens I bear

C                     G              D7        G
And I prepare to meet Jesus and rest eternally there


                                 C                   G
Yes someday I'll take a vacation one that never will end

                                 A7                     D7
When I cross old river Jordan my Savior will welcome me in

G                                C                       G
For me the gates will swing open and I'll have a mansion within

C                       G                  D7         G
There I will rest up in heaven a rest that never will end


                                  C                     G
Yes some people own fine mansions some live in much luxury

                                        A7                        D7
Never having a thought of our Savior of where they'll spend eternity

G                                      C                      G
Again though I cannot be like them I'm building my mansion on high

C                           G                       D7          G
Yes someday I'll rest up in heaven and bid this old cruel world goodbye


                                 C                   G
Yes someday I'll take a vacation one that never will end

                                 A7                     D7
When I cross old river Jordan my Savior will welcome me in

G                                C                       G
For me the gates will swing open and I'll have a mansion within

C                       G                  D7         G
There I will rest up in heaven a rest that never will end
