When I get where I´m going
On the far side of the sky
The first thing that I´m gonna do
Is spread my wings and fly

I´m gonna land beside a lion
And run my fingers through his mane
Or I might find out what it´s like
To ride a drop of rain

Yeah when I get where I´m going
There´ll be only happy tears
I will shed the sins and struggles
I have carried all these years
And I´ll leave my heart wide open
I will love and have no fear
Yeah when I get where I´m going
Don´t cry for me down here

I´m gonna walk with my grand daddy

And he´ll match me step for step
And I´ll tell him how I missed him
Every minute since he left
Then I´ll hug his neck

Yeah when I get where I´m going
There´ll be only happy tears
I will shed the sins and struggles
I have carried all these years
And I´ll leave my heart wide open
I will love and have no fear
Yeah when I get where I´m going
Don´t cry for me down here

So much pain and so much darkness
In this world we stumble through
All these questions I can´t answer

So much work to do

But when I get where I´m going
And I see my maker´s face
I´ll stand forever in the light
Of his amazing grace
Yeah when I get where I´m going
There´ll be only happy tears
Hallelujah
I will love and have no fear
When I get where I´m going
Yeah when I get where I´m going
