As a boy, whenever we would talk about going on a trip...when asked how much longer it would be until we would get there, my father would say, "Just a little longer...and we will be there." In thinking about going to Heaven, I thought of his words.
Lyrics
Lately I’ve been staring up into the eastern sky
Homesick for that country where we’ll live and never die
I’ll leave this world of sorrow destined nevermore to roam
Just a little longer and I’ll be going home
Just a little longer and I’ll hear that trumpet sound
Just a little longer and I’ll be Heaven bound
I’ll leave this world of sorrow destined nevermore to roam
Just a little longer and I’ll be going home
Since the day I met You and I felt your wonderous Grace
I’ve been waiting patiently to look upon Your face
I’ll leave this world of sorrow destined nevermore to roam
Just a little longer and I’ll be going home
