I'm getting closer by the day
I can hear the angels pray
I just want ta’ see His face
And thank Him for the love and grace
I'll probably break down and cry
When I reach my home by and by
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
I’m gonna’ get to heaven one day (I’m on my way to heaven)
Every time I try to pray
Something's always tryin’ to get in my way
But they can try what they wanna’ do
But I ain't ever letting go of You
You've brought me too far to turn back now
I want to be there when the Saints all smile
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
Oh yes, I'm on my way (I’m on my way to heaven)
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
Oh yes, I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
When I get to heaven, sing and shout now
They'll be nobody there who can pull me out
I'm getting closer, yeah, by the day
I can hear, I can hear the angels pray
I just want ta’ see His face
And thank Him for the love and grace
I'll probably break down and cry
I wanna’ be there, see Him now
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
Hey, I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
I'm on my way (I’m on my way to heaven)
I'm on my way (I’m on my way to heaven)
When I get to heaven, sing and shout now
They'll be nobody there who can pull me out
(I’m on my way to heaven)
I'm gonna’ look up David in the heat of the day
(I’m on my way to heaven)
Tune up my harp, and begin to play
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
I'm gonna’ get there (I’m on my way to heaven)
