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 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

[Repeat chorus]


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
