When I Get Where I'm Going Lyrics
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,
Oh, 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.
