When I get where
I'm goin'
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 goin'
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 goin'
Don't cry for me
down here
I'm gonna walk with
my grandaddy
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 goin'
there'll be
only happy tears
I will shed
the sins and struggles
I have carried
all these years
I'll leave my heart
wide open
I will love and have
no fear
Yeah when I get
where I'm goin'
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 goin'
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 goin'
Oh, when I get where
I'm goin'
there'll be only
happy tears
Hallelujah!
I will love
and have no fear
Oh When I get
where I'm goin'
Yeah when I get
where I'm goin'
