This world will try to squeeze you and tease you with tasty lies
This world will try to trick you, then kick you between the eyes
All God's children will never walk alone
All God's children will soon be heading home
They're passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Don't let this old world get its grip on you
God's children are only passing through
This world is slowly dying and trying to take you down
This world is on a deadline and its time is running out
All God's children will never walk alone
All God's children will soon be heading home
They're passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Don't let this old world get its grip on you
God's children are only passing, oh, they're only passing through
Fix your eyes on Jesus, he frees us from death and sin
And when this world is long gone, we'll live on to worship him
All God's children will never walk alone
All God's children will soon be heading home
They're passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Passing through, passing through
On the way to heaven
Don't let this old world get its grip on you
God's children are only passing,
Yeah, yeah they're only passing through
