Build my mansion next door to Jesus

And tell the angels, I′m coming home

It doesn't matter who lives around me

Just so my mansion sits near the throne

I have no castles, no earthly kingdom

But this cabin will do ′til I get home

My mansion's yonder on the hills of glory

Oh, I hope my mansion sits near God's throne

Just build my mansion next door to Jesus

And tell the angels, I′m coming home

It doesn′t matter who lives around me

Just so my mansion sits near the throne

My mother's mansion may be close by me

Across the golden avenue

She was the first one to teach me of Heaven

And the very first one to tell me about you

So build my mansion next door to Jesus

And tell the angels, I′m coming home

It doesn't matter who lives around me

Just so my mansion sits near the throne

It doesn′t matter who lives around me

Just so my mansion sits near God's throne
