Let me sing for Jesus as I go along
Bringing cheer to many in my life a song
If I meet with failure I'll never cease to try
I'm taking my audition to sing up in the sky
Singing songs for Jesus not for wealth nor fame
Using all my talents in His blessed name
Winning souls so precious for that home on high
I'm taking my audition to sing up in the sky
I'll sing the songs my mother sang so long ago
Now she's up in heaven singing there I know
I'm praying as I'm singing to meet her by and by
I'm taking my audition to sing up in the sky
May I be so faithful in His service here
Then when life is over I'll sing with Him so dear
Where no tears of sorrows shall ever dim His eyes
I'm taking my audition to sing up in the sky
Angels there are singing thru eternity
with their voices blending in sweet harmony
How I long to join them ne'er to say goodbye
I'm taking my audition to sing up in the sky
