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
there's 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
bracketed
there'll be only happy tears
bracketed
i will love and have no fear
ahhhh bracketed
yeah when i get where i'm going
