A Far Better Place

1.
Many times I am bound down with heartache and trouble
My steps have grown slower each day
But I think of what's waiting just on the horizon
and with blessed assurance I say.

(chorus)
It's a far better place at the end of the journey
no more heartaches or burdens to bear
we shall hear Jesus saying Welcome Home weary pilrim
it's a far better place over there.

2.
This old body of flesh will leave here behind us
it will never again fill with pain
for we'll stand in the presence of Jesus our Savior
and a glorified one we shall gain

(chorus)
It's a far better place at the end of the journey
no more heartaches or burdens to bear
we shall hear Jesus saying Welcome Home weary pilrim
it's a far better place over there.
