[Bb] [Cm] [Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Ab] [Eb]
Oh Lord, as I wander [Ab] on earth here [Eb] below, my heart is so heavy.
[F] Wherever [Bb] I meet with [Eb] disasters [Ab] that burden [Eb] my soul, and [Eb] then I remember, well, but one [Cm] goal.
[Eb]
I'm bound [Ab] for a city of beauty so [Eb] rare, to live with my Savior
[F] eternally [Bb] there.
No [Eb] more disappointments [Ab] can burden [Eb] my soul.
Through troubles and trials,
[Bb] well, but [Eb] one goal.
[Bb] [Db] [Eb] [Cm] [Ab] [Eb]
I see others living [Ab] in manners [Eb] so fine, their earthly possessions [F] much [Bb] greater than mine.
I'm tempted [Ab] to [Eb] admit the [Ab] [Eb] treasures they hold, and then I remember, [Bb] well, [Eb] but one goal.
I'm bound [Ab] for a city of beauty so [Eb] rare, to live with my Savior
[F] [Bb] eternally there.
No [Eb] more disappointments [Ab] can burden [Eb] my soul.
Through troubles and trials, [Bb] well, but [Eb] one goal.
[Bb] [Ab] [Eb] [Ab] [Eb]
I'm filled with ambition [Ab] that worries my [Eb] mind.
I dream of successes [F] that I [Bb]
never wanted, [Eb] by failures [Ab] that trouble [Eb] my soul, and [Ab] then
I [Eb] remember, [Bb] well, but [Eb] one goal.
I'm [Ab] bound for a city of beauty [Eb] so rare, to live with my Savior
[F] [Bb] eternally there.
No more [Eb] disappointments [Ab] can burden my [Eb] soul.
Through troubles and trials, [Bb] I have but [Eb] one goal.
