Going Home-Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys. . I'm going home (I'm going home). for my reward (for my reward). away up there (away up there). To see my Lord (To see my lord).
I've been looking around. There's a whole new world i see. And so many things that i can do. With your strength in me. . # Now i ask you to hear. As i sing of brighter days.
