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,
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
