I love to think about a paradise (I love to think about a paradise)
Somewhere beyond the blue (Somewhere beyond the blue)
A mansion waiting in the distant skies (A mansion waiting in the distant skies)
Maybe next door to you (Maybe next door to you)We'll go parading through the distant stars (We'll go parading through the distant stars)
Right down the Milky Way (Right down the Milky Way)
The planets Jupiter, Neptune, and Mars (The planets Jupiter and Neptune and Mars)
Won't even be halfway (Won't even be halfway)[Chorus]
Oh yes I'm moving, moving, moving, moving
Moving up to gloryland
Oh yes I'm moving, moving, moving, moving
Holding to His nail-scarred hands
Don't know when I'm leaving but I'm ready to go
When I get to heaven I'll be welcome I know
Oh yes I'm moving, moving, moving, moving
Moving up to glorylandI made my reservation long ago (I made my reservation long ago)
The day I gave up sin (The day I gave up sin)
And when my mansions ready this I know (And when my mansions ready this I know)
I'm gonna move right in (I'm gonna move right in)I have a vision of a happy place (I have a vision of a happy place)
Where friends and loved ones meet (Where friends and loved ones meet)
Right on the corner of God's avenue (Right on the corner of God's avenue)
And hallelujah street (And hallelujah street)[Chorus: x2]
