The Cyber Hymnal ‎#8649

8649. I Am On The Way

1 On the cross of Calvary,
My Redeemer died for me,
And for all His followers He prepares a place;
Since I clasped His loving hand,
Out in sin’s great desert land,
I am on the way to Heaven, praise His grace!

Refrain:
O the precious love of Jesus,
It is burning in my soul;
I am on the way to glory,
Where I shall Him e’er extol!

2 I was lost in sin and night,
With no hope of peace and light,
Wandering farther from my Savior day by day;
But thro’ pardoning grace and love,
To the happy home above,
With a song of gladness, I am on the way. [Refrain]

3 Fully yielding Christ my heart,
Bidding doubts and fears depart,
Trusting Him that I in sin no more shall stray;
To the home of joy untold,
Where I shall His face behold,
Praising Him for victory, I am on the way. [Refrain]
