MY MAMA AND DADDY
TALKED ABOUT
GOING HOME
SINCE I WAS JUST
A BABE ON THEIR KNEE
THEY SAID THAT
NOTHING COMPARES
TO WHAT WAS WAITING
UP THERE
HOW ONE DAY
WE WOULD FINALLY
BE FREE
WELL I'VE NEVER SEEN IT
BUT I KEEP ON BELIEVING
IT WILL BE A PLACE
LIKE I'VE NEVER KNOWN
I KEEP MY EYES
ON THE SKY
'CAUSE MY SOUL
WANTS TO FLY
LORD MY HEART
IS READY TO GO
I WANNA KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
TO MAKE MY WAY
DOWN THE STREETS
OF GOLD
I WANNA KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
TO HAVE A TALK
WITH THE SAINTS OF OLD
I WANNA KNOW
WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO REST MY FEET
BY THE RIVER OF LIFE
I'VE HEARD OF HEAVEN
AND I KNOW
THAT IT'S REAL
I WANNA KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
SOMETIMES I GET WEARY
FROM THIS LIFE
THAT I LIVE
SEEMS THAT PEACE
IS SOMETHING
I'LL NEVER FIND
I TRY TO LIGHTEN
MY LOAD
WHEN ALL THAT
I'VE GOT TO SHOW
IS SEVEN HUNDRED
THINGS ON MY MIND
WELL I'M SEEING VISIONS
OF A CRYSTAL CLEAR
RIVER
WHERE SIN'S FORGOTTEN
WITHOUT A TRACE
MORE THAN I'VE EVER
DREAMED
MY EYES WANNA SEE
THE LOOK OF LOVE
ON MY SAVIOR'S FACE
I WANNA KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
TO MAKE MY WAY
DOWN THE STREETS
OF GOLD
I WANNA KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
TO HAVE A TALK
WITH THE SAINTS OF OLD
I WANNA KNOW
WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO REST MY FEET
BY THE RIVER OF LIFE
I'VE HEARD OF HEAVEN
AND I KNOW
THAT IT'S REAL
I WANNA KNOW
I'M READY TO KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
TO MAKE MY WAY
DOWN THE STREETS
OF GOLD
I WANNA KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
TO HAVE A TALK
WITH THE SAINTS OF OLD
I WANNA KNOW
WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO REST MY FEET
BY THE RIVER OF LIFE
I'VE HEARD OF HEAVEN
AND I KNOW
THAT IT'S REAL
I WANNA KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
I'VE HEARD OF HEAVEN
AND I KNOW
THAT IT'S REAL
I WANNA KNOW
HOW IT FEELS
