There are moments in this life
when it's hard to carry on
when i think about my father
and all the loved ones that
are gone
friends and close relations
somewhere on the other side
they've passed into forever
But the love is never done
Sometimes this tired old world
Starts bringing my heart down
But you gotta bear the cross
If you wanna wear the crown
I often get impatient
As far as time keeps tracking on
I've waited through the darkness
Now I'm ready for the dawn
I'm ready for the dawn
I wanna see heaven
With a faithful carry on
I wanna see heaven
Oh Lord, I wanna see heaven
Where the pain of sin has gone
In heaven
Oh, Lord, I want to see Heaven
As I read the morning paper
It hits me once again
We're surrounded by the evil
Of a world that's dead in sin
An d the only sane conclusion
That my crazy mind can reach
Is to set my heart on Heaven
And to live the things I preach
So I'm living every moment
As if this day was my last
Put my treasures where my heart is
And forget about the past
And if Jesus comes tomorrow
I'll be ready to depart
As he leads me to my mansion
I'll be following my heart
I'll be following my heart
I want to see heav en
Where the faithful carry on
I want to see heaven
Oh Lord
I want to see heaven
Where the pain of sinners go
I wanna see heaven
Oh Lord, I wanna see
heav en
I've tried to go the distance
But it's more than I can bear
They say there's no more crying
And no more dying there
I've held on to the promise
Whosoever will believe
Will have life that's never ending
I believe I believe
I wanna
see heaven
I wanna see, I wanna see
I wanna see heav en
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
I wan na see heaven
No more crying
