One day I was seeking lifes treasure That money couldn't buy Now I know my wealth is in glory With Jesus, on high I'm longing for the day that is coming When Jesus shall gather us whole To a land where children are playing Forever on streets of your gold Where troubles and trials are over The tears of our mothers are gone Today I'm looking for Jesus And longing for my Heavenly home I own my blesses to Jesus He suffer on When I go through the gates of that city I praise him for dying for me I'm longing for the day that is coming When Jesus shall gather us whole To a land where children are playing Forever on streets of your gold Where troubles and trials are over The tears of our mothers are gone Today I'm looking for Jesus And longing for my Heavenly home
