Verse 1:
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 relation,
Somewhere on the other side,
They've passed into forever,
But the love has never died.
Sometimes this tired old world
Starts bringing my heart down,
But I've got to bear the cross
If I want to wear the crown.
I often get impatient,
As the time keeps dragging on.
I've waded through the darkness,
Now I'm ready for the dawn.
I'm ready for the dawn.
Chorus:
I want to see heaven
Where the faithful carry on.
I want to see heaven,
Oh Lord.
I want to see heaven,
Where the pain of sin is gone
In heaven,
Oh Lord.
I want to see heaven.
Verse 2:
So I'm living every moment
As if this day was my last.
I'll put my treasure
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,
Following my heart.
I try 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
Would have life that's never ending,
Well, I believe.... I believe...
Chorus:..
