Lyrics: In my Father’s house are many dwellings, and if I go to prepare a place for you, I will come back again and take you to myself, so that where I am you also may be. Do not let your hearts be troubled. You have faith in God: have faith also in me. In my Father’s house are many dwelling places. If there were not, would I have told you I am going to prepare a place for you? In my Father’s house… Where I am going, you know the way. For I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, you also know my Father. In my Father’s house… My spirit will be with you always. The Advocate, the Spirit of Truth will remind you all that I have said. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled; Do not be afraid. I have told you I will come back to you; have faith in me. In my Father’s house are many dwellings, and if I go to prepare a place for you, I will come back again and take you to myself, so that where I am you also may be, in my Father’s house.
