Don't wait for me
When I'm dead and gone
For I'll just be
Going home
Heaven's light
Will shine on me
It will lead
To eternity
When I take
My final breath
Lay these feeble bones
To rest
And I will run
Through Heaven's gates
Where my blessed Savior waits
(Chorus)
And he will take me
By my hand
And I'll be happier
Than I've ever been
Now don't you worry
We'll meet again
And stay together
In the promised land
And I will hear
My daddy sing
Feel my mama
Holdin me
And I will cry
Tears of joy
When I see
My little baby boy
(Repeat Chorus)
Oooh
Mmmm
Ahh ahhh
Oooh oooh
Ahhh Ahhh
And the Lord will take me
By my hand
And I'll be happier
Than I've ever been
Now don't you worry
We'll meet again
We'll live forever
In the promised land
