Knowing What I Know About Heaven

I bet the trumpets play and the angels sing

Every sweet refrain of amazing grace

And the Heaven's hands opened up the gate

And the children dance when they saw Your face


As happy as they were to see You coming

I was just as sad to have to watch You go, go but


Knowing what I know about Heaven

Believing that you're all the way home

Knowing that you're somewhere better

Is all I need to let you go


I could hope that I could pray you're back

But why on earth would I do that

When you're somewhere, life and love never ends

Oh, knowing what I know about heaven


Where every single voice makes a joyful noise

How sweet the sound when the saints rejoice

To every broken heart and every wounded soul

New life begins on streets of gold


But every tear that's raining here from my eyes

I know the sun is shining where you are


Oh, knowing what I know about Heaven

Believing that you're all the way home

Knowing that you're somewhere better

Is all I need to let you go


I could hope that I could pray you're back

But why on earth would I do that

When you're somewhere, life and love never ends

Oh, knowing what I know about Heaven


I could hope that I could pray you're back

But why on earth would I do that

When you're somewhere, life and love never ends

Oh, knowing what I know about Heaven
