ASL "Mansion Over the Hilltop" (PSE)


This video is my addition to Brittany's Worship & Praise Sunday!


This is in memory of my Dad, who graduated to Heaven in 2005. This song was a favorite of his, and mine as well.

I added the PSE to the title because my signing is I guess, more of a Pidgin Signed English, than true ASL. But, I think with a song that's okay, since I'm trying to convey the words of the song as closely as I can. I hope you enjoy it. :O)


God Bless,


Lyrics:


I'm satisfied with just a cottage below
a little silver and a little gold
But in that city where the ransomed will shine
I want a gold one that's silver lined

(Chorus)
I've got a mansion just over the hilltop
In that bright land where we'll never grow old
And someday yonder we will never more wander
But walk the streets that are purest gold

Don't think me poor or deserted or lonely
I'm not discouraged, I'm Heaven bound
I'm just a pilgrim in search of a city
I want a mansion, a harp and a crown

(Chorus)
