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 granddaddy 
And he'll match me step for step 
And I'll tell him how I've missed him 
Every minute since he left 

So much pain and so much darkness 
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
