A TITLE TO A MANSION
(Sylvia Trace)

I heard people talk about Heaven
And tell of its beauty so rare
So one day I purchased a title
To a mansion in that land so fair
It was given to me without money
It cost my dear Savior His blood
He died on the cross without murmur
For me He paid the great price

Oh, I hold a clear title to a mansion
That Jesus has gone to prepare
Fire cannot touch it, rust cannot harm it
And it never will need no repair
The termites can't mar its foundation
For on the rock or ages it stands
I feel it is almost completed
And ready for me to move in

My deed was both signed and recorded
The day Jesus saved me from sin
And my name was engraved in gold letters
In the Lamb's Book of Life, safe within
I'm an heir to a mansion in glory
When from this life here I will go
I'm waiting for Jesus to call me
Then I'll lay down my cross and go home

Oh, I hold a clear title to a mansion
That Jesus has gone to prepare
Fire cannot touch it, rust cannot harm it
And it never will need no repair
The termites can't mar its foundation
For on the rock or ages it stands
I feel it is almost completed
And ready for me to move in
