I’m to Near Home (to turn back now)

I’ve been traveling here in this Life, with it’s heartaches, struggles and strife.  Sometimes satan tries to tell me
To turn aside, I say satan get thee behind
No returning in me you’ll find, I’m to near my Heavenly home Where I’ll abide
Chorus
I’m too near home of my Lord, too near Heaven’s reward
I am not returning to sin I’ve made my vow
There is nothing in to go back to
Praise the Lord, Sweet Heaven’s in View
I’m to near my Heavenly Home to turn back now

There is Joy in going this way.  It gets sweeter each day
My dear Lord is leading the way to realms above
He’ll be with me until the end
Be my Savior, guide and friend.  I’ll arrive in Heaven
The home of perfect love

Just one glimpse inside the home gate, see my friends
And loved ones who wait, will be worth whatever the cost to make it thru, I will not give up in this race.
I’ll continue by the Lords grace, I’m to near that wonderful home beyond the blue!
