Jesus, my all, to Heaven has gone
To find a home in glory.
And I'll fix my hopes upon
To find a home in glory.
Chorus: Oh, glory, oh, glory.
There's room enough in Paradise,
To find a home in glory.
If you get there before I do,
And find a home in glory,
Look out for me; I'm coming, too,
To find a home in glory.
(Chorus)
I strike, I see, and I pursue
To find a home in glory.
In our old way, tell him I view
To find a home in glory.
(Chorus)

1. Beyond the bounds of time and space,
We have a home in glory.
Look forward to that heav'nly place,
We have a home in glory.
CHORUS: O Glory!
O Glory!
There's room enough in Paradise,
For all a home in glory.
2. Come on my partners in distress,
I have a home in glory.
My comrades through the widerness
I have a home in glory.
3. Who suffer with our Mater here,
Shall have a home in glory.
And shall before His face appear,
We have a home in glory.
4.Our conflicts here shall soon be past
We have a home in glory.
And you and I ascend at last,
We have a home in glory.
5. Jesus my all, to heaven is gone
I have a home in glory.
He whom I fixed my hopes upon,
I have a home in glory.
There's Room Enough (Version 2)

Sweet Bards may chant melodius lays,
And fame may tell the story.
I envy not there fading praise,
I hope to sing in Glory.
CHORUS: O Glory!
O Glory!
There's room enough in Paradise,
For all a home in glory.
For heaps of gold, let others toil,
From blooming years to hoary,
Nor rust corrupt nor theives can spoil,
My treasured home in glory
No city have I here, nor home,
Where all is transitory;
But though o'er earth I homeless roam,
I have a home in glory!
When near the cross the Saviour stood,
He said, " I go before thee
A mansion to prepare," that you
May dwell with me in glory !
When on the cross, his gushing blood
Was poured in streams all gory;
That grace might wash me in that flood,
And make me meet for glory.
May love refine my heart from dross,
By grace to show the story;
Then in the robe, the crown, the cross,
I will forever glory!
