(written by Walter Hawkins)

Anybody asked you
If anybody asks you where I'm going
Where I'm going
Where I'm going soon

If you wanna know I beg you wanna know
Where I'm going,
Someday soon.
Oh, oh

Chorus:
I'm going up yonder (going up yonder)
I'm going up yonder (going up yonder)
Going up yonder to be with my Lord.
Oh

I can take the pain, yes I can
The heartaches that it brings, it's gonna hurt
The comforts in knowing I'll soon be gone.
Soon then there is God gives me grace
To run this Christian race,
'Til I see my Savior, I see him face to face.
Oh, oh

Chorus:
I'm going up yonder (going up yonder)
I'm going up yonder (going up yonder)
I'm going up yonder to be with my Lord.
Oh, oh
Then I'm going up yonder
I'm going up yonder
Yeah, yeah, I'm going up yonder to be with my Lord
