HEAVEN IS WAITING FOR ME

Once I was lost without a vision
I was trapped in a spiritual prison
Then Jesus came and saved my soul
He healed my heart and made me whole

CHORUS
Now I know heaven is real
His Holy Spirit I can feel
My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place
One day I will feel his loving embrace
On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing
I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring
In heaven above I'll live with him
Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim

My journey on earth is so short
I must work for him, preach and exhort
The Bible records words about my new home
Where I'll be at rest and never more roam

CHORUS
Now I know heaven is real
His Holy Spirit I can feel
My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place
One day I will feel his loving embrace
On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing
I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring
In heaven above I'll live with him
Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim

With friends and loved ones waiting there
I'll sit with them and eat that heavenly fare
My work on earth will be done
My final race will be won

CHORUS
Now I know heaven is real
His Holy Spirit I can feel
My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place
One day I will feel his loving embrace
On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing
I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring
In heaven above I'll live with him
Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim

The wonders he has prepared for me
Gives me hope for today and sets me free
While ages roll on and on
My trials and troubles will be gone

CHORUS
Now I know heaven is real
His Holy Spirit I can feel
My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place
One day I will feel his loving embrace
On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing
I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring
In heaven above I'll live with him
Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim

A great homecoming day that will be
When friends and loved ones I will see
My prayers down here are not in vain
My heavenly rewards I will surely gain

CHORUS
Now I know heaven is real
His Holy Spirit I can feel
My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place
One day I will feel his loving embrace
On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing
I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring
In heaven above I'll live with him
Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim
