An Heir to the Kingdom

Author: Nellie Dugan Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.4 #100 (1894) First Line: I’m heir to the mansions of glory Refrain First Line: I’m heir, I’m heir Lyrics: 1 I’m heir to the mansions of glory, I’m heir, Above The Father has given the promise Of joys in the kingdom of love. No sickness nor sorrow shall enter, No shadow of evening appear. But bliss all immortal shall greet us, And pleasures with never a fear. Refrain: I’m heir, I’m heir. To mansions in heaven above; I’m heir, I’m heir. I’m heir to the kingdom of love. 2 We long for that home with our Savior, That home So bright. Where sin cannot enter to harm us, And life is on dream of delight. We ask Thee for strength, our dear Father, To bravely stand up for the right, That when our earth-cares are all ended, We’ll enter the kingdom of light. [Refrain] 3 How happy the faithful in glory, The saints At rest Are singing the song of redemption, Salvation for sinners oppressed. For there are the blest of all ages, Who wait on the beautiful shore, To welcome the dear ones to heaven, To dwell in that land evermore. [Refrain] Tune Title: [I’m heir to the mansions of glory]
