Verse I We have days very long We have days very hard We're given up our lives for the sake of the call And in those times when we thought We were not gonna make it We would remind ourselves that our reward is in heaven
Bridge We're goin' to a place that is truly blessed A place where we'll find rest yeah Prepared for me and you I'm getting my house in order How about you? A place that is full of peace Love it will be over flowing We'll be there for eternity I want you there yeah I want you there with me
Chorus: Keep your head up he's coming some day to carry us away to a better place (repeat)
Verse II We all have times when we're weak and we have times when we're strong We don't always do what's right ‘cause sometimes it's easier to do wrong Well everybody makes mistakes yeah at some point in their lives You know that nobody's perfect We're all just reaching for the prize
Bridge We're goin' to a place that is truly blessed A place where we'll find rest yeah Prepared for me and you I'm getting my house in order How about you? A place that is full of peace Love it will be over flowing We'll be there for eternity I want you there yeah I want you there with me
Chorus
Keep your head up he's coming some day to carry us away to a better place (4X)
Verse III White pearly gates that's where the streets are made with gold His glory illuminates the heavens Walls of jasper We'll live there ever after We'll seek his face We'll bow down and cry holy holy holy holy Keep your head up he's coming some day to carry us away to a better place(4X)
