"Build My Mansion (Next Door To Jesus)" lyrics

Gene Watson Lyrics

"Build My Mansion (Next Door To Jesus)"

Build my mansion next door to Jesus
And tell the angels, I'm coming home
It doesn't matter who lives around me
Just so my mansion sits near the throne

I have no castles, no earthly kingdom
But this cabin will do 'til I get home
My mansion's yonder on the hills of glory
Oh, I hope my mansion sits near God's throne

Just build my mansion next door to Jesus
And tell the angels, I'm coming home
It doesn't matter who lives around me
Just so my mansion sits near the throne

My mother's mansion may be close by me
Across the golden avenue
She was the first one to teach me of Heaven
And the very first one to tell me about you

So build my mansion next door to Jesus
And tell the angels, I'm coming home
It doesn't matter who lives around me
Just so my mansion sits near the throne

It doesn't matter who lives around me
Just so my mansion sits near God's throne
