[Verse 1]
We have days very long
We have days very hard

We're given up our lives for the sake of the call
And in those times when we thought
We were not gonna make it

We would remind ourselves that our reward is in heaven

[Bridge]

We're goin' to a place that is truly blessed
A place where we'll find rest yeah
Prepared for me and you

I'm getting my house in order How about you?
A place that is full of peace
Love it will be over flowing

We'll be there for eternity
I want you there yeah I want you there with me


[Chorus]
Keep your head up he's coming some day to carry us away to a better place [repeat]


[Verse 2]
We all have times when we're weak and we have times when we're strong
We don't always do what's right 'cause sometimes it's easier to do wrong

Well everybody makes mistakes yeah at some point in their lives
You know that nobody's perfect
We're all just reaching for the prize

Bridge
We're goin' to a place that is truly blessed
A place where we'll find rest yeah

Prepared for me and you
I'm getting my house in order How about you?
A place that is full of peace

Love it will be over flowing
We'll be there for eternity
I want you there yeah I want you there with me


[Chorus]
Keep your head up he's coming some day to carry us away to a better place [x4]


[Verse 3]
White pearly gates that's where the streets are made with gold

His glory illuminates the heavens
Walls of jasper
We'll live there ever after

We'll seek his face
We'll bow down and cry holy holy holy holy
Keep your head up he's coming some day to carry us away to a better place [x4]
