When I'm near the end of life, All I've seen, all I've known Sharing laughter with my loved ones Lessons learned, ways I've grown I'll be ready for the day I see my life unfold I'll be ready for the streets of gold Going home to that city in the sky Where my soul goes on living when I die And I know with a smile, there you wait So I'll see you at the gate, whe that time comes
When I look back on the world
I've left behind and feel no pain Having reached my full redemption, Cleansed of sin and free of blame When my race has been completed, All my stories told, I'll be running Through the streets of gold Going home to that city in the sky Where my soul goes on living when I die And I know with a smile, there you wait So I'll see you at the gate Whe that time comes ♪ I have more hope that most men could 'Cause I don't fear no box of wood And I've more freedom than most men could 'Cause I don't fear no box of wood I've more hope than most men could 'Cause I don't fear no box of wood And I've more freedom than most men could 'Cause I don't fear no box of wood I've more hope than most men could 'Cause I don't fear no box of wood And I've more freedom than most men could 'Cause I don't fear no box of wood I've more hope than most men could 'Cause I don't fear no box of wood
