When I Get Where I'm Going

Intro: - - - - - - 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         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 granddaddy And he’ll match me step for step And I’ll tell him how I missed him   Every minute since he left            And 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         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 struggle through All these questions I can’t answer And 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        Oh when I get where I’m going             (Oh 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                Outro: - - - - - Mel [email protected]
