Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I'm leaning on the everlasting
arms of Jesus, Until the day He comes
Though I know it's not
The good that I have done
I know through Jesus there is
A victory to be won
If I don't make it, it's
Only me to be blamed
For I've been warned time and time again

I wanna make heaven my home
I don't wanna labour in vain
Heaven my Home
Lord help me to make it in
For no matter what it takes
I really wanna make
Heaven my home

I'm convinced that once i'm in His presence
I can't be armed for He is my defense
Though temptations often come my way
The hands of Jesus will guide me day by day
And though the way to life is a narrow path
I'll sacrifice until this world has past

I wanna make heaven my home
I don't wanna labour in vain
Heaven my Home
Lord help me to make it in
For no matter what it takes
I really wanna make
Heaven my home

The Lord He wrote my life with grace and mercy
He sets me free from all infirmities
And now that i know (now that i know)
what is right from wrong
I'm gonna keep holding on
Keep holding on (keep holding on)

I wanna make heaven my home
I don't wanna labour in vain
Heaven my Home
Lord help me to make it in
For no matter what it takes
I really wanna make
Heaven my home
