Maybe it was “My Non Stop Flight to Gloryland”? 


Anyone know if that’s right? 


Thanks.

I think the song you’re looking for is “One Way Flight To Gloryland”.

Here’s the lyrics…

One Way Flight
Jim Wood

First Verse:
There’s a flight leaving here in the morning
Destination was charted long ago
Now the Captain is ready and waiting
But the engines are still idled low
Waiting now for those who still linger
With unclaimed tickets free for every man
Reservations secured by the Savior
For this one way flight to gloryland

CHORUS:
All aboard the Master calleth from the runway
For our leaving is almost at hand
Make your way to the toll gate called Calvary
For this one way flight to gloryland

Second Verse:
Now this flight is for all those believing
And our pilot is Jesus, God’s Son
And the passengers are all boarded safely
They’re prepared for that heavenly run
My brother don’t let this flight leave without you
For soon all those who are on board will say goodbye
Make your way to the toll gate called Calvary
And secure your reservations in the sky

Thanks for the responses… and “yes”... as it turns out the song title was “Non Stop Flight to Gloryland”. 

It’s been recorded by both the Cathedrals and Gold City… and probably others, but the words to the chorus are (thanks to a friend of mine whom I ran into last night…):

Soon I’m taking off… from this world below
Soon I’m gonna sail a-bove the azure blue… 
Sin forever gone… I’ll be going home
Going home to dwell with all who have been true… 
We’ll sail up high…  up to the sky…  with heaven’s hope… 
And Angel band; fly high
/high above the tree-tops; Soon I’ll sail away… 
Leaving any day… Leaving on my non-stop flight to glory-land… 
(bolded words are a bass solo…) 

I can still use the words for the verses though… thanks.
