Buck Owens - Eternal Vacation Lyrics
Some people are taking vacationTraveling both far and nearEver stop and think about JesusEver see him to have a careIt seems that I cannot be like themWhile on earth life's burdens I bearAnd I prepare to meet JesusAnd rest eternaly there.Yes, someday I'll take a vacationOne that never will endWhen I'll cross old river JordanMy Saviour will welcome me inFor me the gates will swing openAnd I'll have a mansion withinThere I will rest up in heavenA rest that never will end.--- Instrumental ---Yes, some people own fine mansionsSome live in much luxuryNever having a thought about SaviourOf where they'll spend eternityAnd though I cannot be like themI'm building my mansion on highYes, someday I'll rest up in heavenAnd leave this old cruel world, goodbye.Yes, someday I'll take a vacationOne that never will endWhen I'll cross old river JordanMy Saviour will welcome me inFor me the gates will swing openAnd I'll have a mansion withinThere I will rest up in heavenA rest that never will end...
