Lord build me a cabin in the corner of Glory Land
Chorus :
(same chords as verse)
Lord build me just a cabin in the corner of
Glory Land
In the shade of the tree of life that it may ever stand
Where I can just hear the angels sing and shake Jesus' hand
Lord build me a cabin in the corner of Glory Land
Verse 2:
Blessed Lord I'm not askin' to live in the midst
For I know that I'm not worthy of such splendor as this
But I’m asking for mercy while humbly I stand
Lord build me a cabin in the corner of Glory Land
Verse 3:
I've many dear loved ones who've gone on this way
On that great final morning shall I hear them all say
Come join in the singin' and play in our band
Lord build me a cabin in the corner of Glory Land
