When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best
When they lay me down to die
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best
Prepare yourself, you know it's a must
You gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
Gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky
Gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky
That's where you're gonna go when you die
When you die, and they lay you to rest
You're gonna go to the place that's the best
I've be sinner, yes I've sinned
But I've got a friend in Jesus
So you know that when I die
Gonna set me up to the spirit in the sky
Gonna send me up to the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best
Go to the place that's the best, yeah
