If you're tired of sinnin' take your Saviour's
handThere's a mansion worth winnin' in the great
Promised LandMany doubters are grinnin' don't
you slip and fallIf you miss heaven you'll miss
it allIf you miss heaven you'll miss it allFor
me to reach heaven I'd gladly crawlThe smallest
and weakest who love him are tallIf you miss
heaven you'll miss it allOur loving Saviour gave
us a second birthAnd his salvation frees us from
the sorrows of earthForever with Jesus makes
life seem so smallIf you miss heaven you'll miss
it allIf you miss heaven you'll miss it all...

Heavens Jubilee 657 Need Song Book
Revelation 59-13 (NKJV) 9 And they sang a new
song, saying "You are worthy to take the scroll,
And to open its seals For You were slain, And
have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of
every tribe and tongue and people and nation, 10
And have made us kings and priests to our God
And we shall reign on the earth." 11 Then I
looked, and I heard the voice of many angels
around the throne, the living creatures, and the
elders and the number of them was ten thousand
times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands,
12 saying with a loud voice "Worthy is the Lamb
who was slain To receive power and riches and
wisdom, And strength and honor and glory and
blessing!"
