i've missed you every minute since you left.

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, run my fingers through his mane where i might find out what it's like to ride a drop of rain.
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. i'll tell him how i've missed him every minute since he left and then i'll hug his neck.
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.
so much pain, so much darkness in this world we stumble through. all these questions i can't answer, there's 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.
