Heaven's Coming
Let me tell you about
This man that I met
I think he said
His name was Fred
I remember thinking life
Hadn't been good
To him, no
He didn't have on
The finest clothes
Shoes worn out
Like his soul
The wholes in his pockets
Deep like the sockets
Where all of his tears
Flowed from
Morning till evening
He walked the streets
And talked about things
We didn't understand
Well not I look back
In wonder did he
Come from another
Constellation a visitation I'll
Never know but what
He said stirred my soul
Heaven's coming heaven's coming
Heaven's coming down to us
I want to be ready when
Jesus comes, Jesus comes
Jesus comes back for us
I want to be
The brother's words
Rained down like fire
Like holy ghost tent revivals
I knew something in me
Would never be the same, no
But I wanted to know his story
He said brother bout me don't worry
Keep your eyes on the prize
Keep looking up
Because one day
Heaven's coming heaven's coming
Heaven's coming down to us
I want to be ready when
Jesus comes, Jesus comes
Jesus comes back for us
I want to be
Heaven's coming heaven's coming
Heaven's coming down to us
I want to be ready when
Jesus comes, Jesus comes
Jesus comes back for us
I want to be
Like you I get distracted
With things that
Don't even matter
Like which side are
You standing on, yeah
But I'd rather be left out
Right where Fred stood to shout
Then join in with the words
That give me hope, I'll sing
Heaven's coming heaven's coming
Heaven's coming down to us
I want to be ready when
Jesus comes, Jesus comes
Jesus comes back for us
I want to be
Heaven's coming heaven's coming
Heaven's coming down to us
I want to be ready when
Jesus comes, Jesus comes
Jesus comes back for us
I want to be
This man that I met
I think he said
