My Temporary Home

This old house is just
My temporary home,
A place where-in I dwell
Until I'm gone ...

Just someplace
To hang my hat;
Where I feed
My dog and cat.

Yes, this house is just
My temporary home.

Where I'm going,
There are treasures
Greater than anyone
Could ever seek from mortal man.

God has riches
Beyond Grace
And I can't wait
To see His face ...

Because this house is just
My temporary home.
There are no earthly riches
That compare
To the treasures we'll find
In Heaven's Square ...

Where the sun
Will always shine
And the darkness
Will be gone ...

When we all leave our
Temporary home.

There's precious stones and
Diamonds there galore.
You won't believe what
Heaven holds in store.

On the streets of pure gold,
We'll sing our song
When we all forsake our
Temporary home.
