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.
Chorus:
Yeah, when I get where I’m goin’
There’ll be only happy tears
I’ll 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 grand daddy
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.
Chorus:
Yeah, when I get where I’m goin’
There’ll be only happy tears
I’ll 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.
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
When I get where I’m goin’
Yeah, when I get where I’m goin’…
This song is by Brad Paisley and Dolly Pardon Titled "When I get to where I’m going"
I feel this song alot. It makes me sad but lifts me up too.
So much In this life I just don’t get, maybe someday…..
