Far away beyond those hills is mystery untold
Far off almost out of sight there's beauty to behold
Which way do we go, can't say that I know
Some say it's a place where you'll never grow old
Lord know what we'll find behind those gates of gold
Almost there and yet so far is where we'll find our home
So close but still so far are stories to be told
Which way do we go, can't say that I know
Some say it's a place where you'll never grow old
Lord know what we'll find behind those gates of gold
Mama, come gently rock my soul
And tell me please, what we'll find behind those gates of gold
