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 grandaddy,
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.

(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,
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.
