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 my 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 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 mama'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 Lord, to tell me about You. 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
