When I get where I'm going On the far side of the sky The first thing that gonna do Is spread my wings and fly
I'm gonna land beside a lion And run my through his mane Or I might find out what it's like To ride a drop of rain
[Chorus] 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 love and have 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 minute since he left I'll hug his neck
[Repeat chorus]
So much pain and so much darkness In this world we stumble through 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 in the light Of his amazing grace Yeah when I get where I'm going There'll be only happy tears
I will love and have no fear When I get where I'm going Yeah when I get where I'm going
