Song Lyrics

Well, I'm pressing on
To that upper strand
To the unseen world
Made by my God's hand
Mysterious Kingdom
Beyond the sky
Where I'll live forever
After I die
The prayers that I pray
Like mumbling words
Come back to me answered
From the Spirit World heard
In the midst of this life
Full of woe and despair
Somebody's listenin'
Somebody up there

Father above
Hear my plea
Look down below
Have mercy on me
Lead me on
Day after day
And keep me in
The Gospel Way (the Gospel Way, Gospel Way)

The cares of this world
Are fading away
Little by little
Day after day
There's coming a time
When I'm gonna fly
Into forever
To the sweet by-and-by
I'll see my mother (yes, oh yes)
And father there too (yes, oh yes)
So many friends (yes, oh yes)
To say "how do you do?" (yes, oh yes)
I want to see Jesus (yes, oh yes)
And hear him say "child" (yes, oh yes)
Come sit down beside me (yes, oh yes)
And rest for awhile

Father above
Hear my plea
Look down below
Have mercy on me
Lead me on
Day after day
And keep me in
The Gospel Way (the Gospel Way, Gospel Way)
The Gospel Way
