Lyrics Thank God I'm on My Way - Earl Scruggs , Lester Flatt

Now I've been working all my life but it all has been in vain
I've tried to live for Satan and the whole wide world to gain
But when I got down on my knees I could hear my Saviour say
Come unto me I'll give you rest thank God I'm on my way

I'm on my way to heaven I'm gonna travel on
We'll shout and sing his praises up there around the throne
I want to shake my Saviour's hand and hear him say well done
And when I hear him say these words I know my race is won

[ Harmonica - dobro ]
No matter what we try to do while here on earth we roam
We can't forget our Saviour and live our life alone
You'll have to run to Jesus and let him make a way
I feel it deep down in my soul thank God I'm on my way

Dear friend if you are lost in sin your soul's not satisfied
Don't try to make a way yourself and leave the Lord outside
Just give your heart to Jesus and then you'll hear him say
Come unto me I'll give you rest thank God I'm on my way

I'm on my way to heaven...
