Hey, St. Peter
Hey, St. Peter
We lost a good one today
Just want you to know
He'll be headin' your way
Left us too damn fast
That's all I've got to say
Hey, St. Peter
We lost a good one today
Hey, St. Peter
Please make room for him
He was no president
No rich man or king
But he salted the earth
He was my best friend
Hey, St. Peter
Please let my friend in
Open the arms of Heaven
Let him gaze on his Maker's face
Let love rush in
Cradle him
In amazing grace
Hey, St. Peter
When I stand at your gate
Will you open it wide
'Cause I ain't no saint
Though sometimes I believe
I'm God's only mistake
I hope my friends might pray
Open the arms of Heaven
Let him gaze on his Maker's face
Let love rush in
To cradle him
In amazing grace
Hey, St. Peter
I'm God's one big mistake
But my friends might pray
"Please don't turn him away"
Yeah, they'd laugh, they'd cry, and they'd say
"We lost a good one today"
We lost a good one today
Just want you to know
He'll be headin' your way
Left us too damn fast
That's all I've got to say
Hey, St. Peter
We lost a good one today
Hey, St. Peter
Please make room for him
He was no president
No rich man or king
But he salted the earth
He was my best friend
Hey, St. Peter
Please let my friend in
Open the arms of Heaven
Let him gaze on his Maker's face
Let love rush in
Cradle him
In amazing grace
Hey, St. Peter
When I stand at your gate
Will you open it wide
'Cause I ain't no saint
Though sometimes I believe
I'm God's only mistake
I hope my friends might pray
Open the arms of Heaven
Let him gaze on his Maker's face
Let love rush in
To cradle him
In amazing grace
Hey, St. Peter
I'm God's one big mistake
But my friends might pray
"Please don't turn him away"
Yeah, they'd laugh, they'd cry, and they'd say
"We lost a good one today"
