(Chorus)....
(Verse 1)
(Chorus)......Just build my mansion next door to Jesus......
(Verse 2)
(Chorus)........So build my mansion next door to Jesus.......
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 sets 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 hill of glory,
Oh, I hope my mansion, sets near God's 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, Lord, to tell me 'bout you.
