In the mansions eternal, Jesus is there our home to prepare; In the mansions eternal, “He giveth His children rest.” Tenderly He calls to thee, “Heavy laden, come to me;” Trusting in His power divine, Endless life is thine.
Chorus
In the mansions eternal, Jesus is there our hope to prepare; In the mansions eternal, “He giveth His children rest.”
Verse 2

Chorus
In the mansions eternal, Jesus is there our hope to prepare; In the mansions eternal, “He giveth His children rest.”

In the mansions eternal, Faithful and sure His promises are; In the mansions eternal, “He giveth His children rest.” Though a pilgrim here below, Onward to my home I go, To the land forever bright; Jesus is its light.
Chorus
In the mansions eternal, Jesus is there our hope to prepare; In the mansions eternal, “He giveth His children rest.”
