Lyrics

I’m in the way, the bright and shin­ing way,
I’m in the glo­ry-land way;
Telling the world that Je­sus saves to­day,
Yes, I’m in the glo­ry-land way.

Refrain

I’m in the glo­ry-land way;
I’m in the glo­ry-land way;
Heaven is near­er,
And the way grow­eth clear­er,
For I’m in the glo­ry-land way.

List to the call, the Gos­pel call today,
Get in the glo­ry-land way;
Wand’rers, come home, oh, hast­en to obey,
And get in the glo­ry-land way.

Refrain

Onward I go, re­joic­ing in His love,
I’m in the glo­ry-land way;
Soon I shall see Him in that home above,
Oh, I’m in the glo­ry-land way.
