a-[a] round me [e7] many are [a] building
[d] homes of beauty and [a] wealth
but [d] what of a home in [a] heaven
where will you [e7] live after [a] death

chorus:
are you [d] building a home in [a] heaven
to live in when this life is [e7] o´er
will you [a] move to that [d] beautiful [a] city
and live with [e7] christ ever [a] more.

long is the [d] road that leads [a] you
to that beautiful home up [e7] there
is [a] work on your [d] home com-[a] pleted
death may [e7] be lingering [a] near.

are you ready [d] for his [a] coming
have you been true all a-[e7] long
have you [a] finished your [d] building in [a] glory
will you move to this [e7] heavenly [a] home.
