Don't You Wanna Go There

Verse

When I was just a baby

Sitting on my mama’s knee

Told me about a place called heaven

And all that Jesus did for me

Heard about the streets of gold

Where we will never grow old

No more crying no more tears

Where there’s no worry and no more fears

Chorus

Don’t you wanna go there

Don’t you wanna live forever

Don’t you wanna look upon the face of Jesus

Shouting hallelujah to the King together

Don’t you wanna go there

Come along with me brother

There’s a train a coming picking up God’s children

Taking us home to be with Him forever

Don’t you wanna go there

Verse

I grew up in a world of troubles

I had to tell some loved ones goodbye

They always talked about a better place

Looking up toward the sky

There were times when I drifted

Away from the Father’s care

But way back in the distance

I could hear my mama’s prayer

(Repeat Chorus)

(Repeats Don’t you wanna go there)

Bridge

I made my reservation clear

The days are short and the time is near

My heart is waiting just to hear

Well done my son

(Repeat Chorus – Reprise)

Outro

Don’t you wanna go there

Get ready Get ready

Get ready Get ready

Any day now Any day now

He’s a coming to take us to heaven

I wanna see you there
