Oh they tell me there's a land, called Heaven
Where the children of God will live again
When they cried around the gates of that city
I hope that my lord will let me in
For I want to be one of his chosen
When the shepards flock is gathered in
When the trumpet sounds, the pearly gates swing open
I hope my Lord will let me in
They tell me there's a throne, that glows like silver
The streets are paved with gold from end to end
I don'r want to miss my home, that's forever
I hope that my Lord will let me in
