I was driving in this morning, listening to a CD that’s not primarily a “Christian” CD, but it had a Gospel song that I really enjoyed… The song is called “I’m Workin’ on a Road (To Glory Land).” The album is Tis Sweet To Be Remembered: The Essential Flatt & Scruggs. The track is disc 1, track 3, which you can “preview” with the button to the left on that link.

I’m Workin’ on a Road (To Glory Land)

(Chorus)
I’m workin’ on a road that leads to glory
I want to shake my Saviour’s hand
I’m building my hope on things eternal
I’m workin’ on a road to glory land

Each day I get so lonely while living here below
My Savior’s waiting patiently, I’m planning now to go
I want a firm foundation that’s built with God’s own hand
So now I’ve started building a road to glory land

Chorus

Oh listen to me sinners, don’t you want to go?
You know we have no promise of living here below
You know he suffered for our sins and died upon the cross
For all who did believe on Him, their soul will not be lost

Chorus

And when this world is finished, I want to travel on
I can hear the angels singing, up there around the throne
I want to see my mother, and take her by the hand
As soon as I have finished the road to glory land

Chorus
