Heaven
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When the Lord shall crack the sky
I'm going to my home on high, Heaven
To a city called Heaven
I'm going there
(repeat)
Where the streets are paved with gold
And the half has never been told
Verse1:
See the Lord doesn't want
Any man to perish
He's so kind
Take advantage of your time
Well it won't be long
We'll be going home, over to Heaven
Choir: To a city called Heaven
I'm going there
Repeat Chorus
Verse2:
John said he saw a new Heaven
And he saw a brand new earth
Prepared all God's children
So prepare to meet the Lord
Nothing but the pure in heart
Shall see God, over in Heaven
To a city called Heaven
I'm going there
Repeat Chorus
Vamp:
I'm going there (8x)
Love over there
Joy over there
(4x)
I'm going there (8x)
To a city called Heaven,
I'm going there
