I'm going on a journey

To a place I long to go

A land that’s filled with angels

Where the peaceful valleys flow.


I have no need for luggage

So I plan to travel light

A first-class trip to heaven

It’s a non-returning flight.


There won’t be tears of sadness

Sweet blessings I will reap

A torch will burn eternal

And the soul doth never sleep.



I do not need an auto

There is no bus or train

My journey is predestined

And I won’t be back again.


No need for food or shelter

Everything I need is there

My home that lies in heaven

Is a joy beyond compare.


I am ready for my venture

Got the voucher in my hand

I’m bound for Zion glory

In that far-off distant land.


I am headed for that City

My flight was paid for me

To a land of peace and beauty

Just beyond the crystal sea.


I soon will have my ticket

There is no need to pack

On a one-way trip to heaven

And I won’t be coming back.
