1 Tho’ I had wandered afar from the right,
Straying away from the truth and the light,
Yet I am seeking for heaven today;
Glory to God I am facing that way!

Refrain:
Facing that way with my heart full of song,
Walking that way as he leads me along,
Eagerly, hopefully pressing each day;
Glory to God I am facing that way!

2 There is a place of reunion on high,
Where I shall meet many friends by and by;
That will be glory for me some sweet day;
Blessed be God I am facing that way! [Refrain]

3 There is a place where my Saviour shall be
Crowned King of kings and his glory I’ll see,
There thro’ eternity with him I’ll stay;
Glory to God I am facing that way! [Refrain]
