When I Get Where I'm Going lyrics

(feat. Dolly Parton)

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 grand daddy

And he'll match me step for step

And I'll tell him how I missed him

Every minute since he left

Then I'll hug his neck

[Repeat chorus]

So much pain and so much darkness

In 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

Yeah when I get where I'm going

There'll be only happy tears

Hallelujah

I will love and have no fear

When I get where I'm going

Yeah when I get where I'm going

    Hey Pam,
    Since you & me have got so much in common and the writing on here is limited, and we both have so amny stories to tell each other, maybe if we emailed one another back & forth, we could actually talk. My email is cntrytxangel777 at oohya dot com. It won't let me put it in right, but you can figure it out. Hope to hear from you soon! Phyllis

    I guess they wanted to make sure you heard it, ya think!
    I had a simular thing happen to me at home with just me & my dog sitting on the couch watching tv...out of nowhere, I caught the shadow of a tall (man?)out of the side of my eye. It got MY attention. But what was weird, was at the sametime I looked over where I saw him, my dog's head turned that way too. It never happened again, like you mentioned about the radio. Phyllis

    Really? The radio came on by it self? That is strange and scary, but I bet it somebody or one of your loved ones just letting you know that they was there for you and letting you know that they are thinking of you too!

    Both of my parents passed away at the beginning of 2002. My youngest brother just passed away a week and a half ago anf his funeral was just recently and one of my older brothers chose this song to play at our brother's funeral. It was like angels singing and everything was so right! It is a sad song, but I listen to it all the time now to remind me that my brother is happy now after a very hard life of struggling. I cry everytime I hear it, but yet it lifts me up somehow!

    This song is amazing!! I've never like Dolly Parton all that much but her voice makes this song sound like an angel is singing it!!! It reminds me of my brother who passed away a few years back. He had a really rough life and I listen to this song when I'm feeling down and it helps me remember how much he struggled yet he still loved life!!!
