Lyrics

When I Get To Heaven

(V1)
I was just a sinner Lord
Hopeless and astray
Succumbed to each temptation
That the world had thrown my way
I carried every burden
I was weak and full of fear
But in my darkest hour
one thought became clear
When I get to heaven
I'm gonna see Jesus

(V2)
I was known to be prideful
Thought I could do it on my own
Drank, caroused and fooled around
With things best left alone
One day I woke up broken
So I got down on my knees
And gave it all to Jesus
And here's what comforts me
When I get to Heaven
I'm gonna see Jesus

(Ch)
When I get to heaven
I'll shout out Glory be
I'm gonna say goodbye
To all this suffering
When those pearly gates swing open
Alleluia
I'm gonna see Jesus

(V3)
There won't be any illness
There won't be any poor
No more broken spirit
We won't no sin any more
The hungry will be fed
And the homeless will have their home
The faithful will be led
By the greatest God I know
When I get to heaven
I'm gonna see Jesus

(Ch)
When I get to heaven
I'll shout out Glory be
I'm gonna say goodbye
To all this suffering
When those pearly gates swing open
Halleluyah
I'm gonna see Jesus

(BR)
Glory to the Lamb of God
A true sight to behold
Full of grace and mercy
Sitting on his throne

(Ch)
When I get to heaven
I'll shout out glory be
I'm gonna say goodbye
To all this suffering
When those pearly gates swing open
Alleluia
I'm gonna see Jesus
