Sometimes This Is Heaven to Me

Now more than ever I feel Heaven pulling at me
My bags are all packed but I'm not quite ready to leave
I'm not afraid and I'm not scared
You know it's hard to describe
I just wish the whole world could feel what I'm feeling inside
'Cause when I hold the hand of an old trusted friend
This is Heaven
I'm talking about Heaven
And when I see a smile on the face of my child
This is Heaven
Still talking about Heaven
So Lord if you don't mind I'd like just a little more time
'Cause there's songs that I still want to sing
There is laughter and tears but I'd sure like it here
Sometimes this is Heaven to me
I'm caught in between this world and the world still to come
And I'm tired from the race that I've tried to faithfully run
No I don't belong to this world I'm just passing through
But don't tell me goodbye 'cause I've still got some living to do
'Cause when I hold the hand of an old trusted friend
This is Heaven
I'm talking about Heaven
And when I see a smile on the face of my child
This is Heaven
Still talking about Heaven
So Lord if you don't mind I'd like just a little more time
'Cause there's songs that I still want to sing
There is laughter and tears but I'd sure like it here
Sometimes this is Heaven to me
There is laughter and tears but I'd sure like it here
Eyes have not seen ears have not heard
What God has in store for his children
But sometimes this is Heaven to me
Heaven to me
