Oh heavens just a prayer away, woe woe just a prayer away In my sights not far away I know I'm get'n in. Now on earth they said good byes, I saw the tears and heard the cries the body's down, but the soul it flies thank God I'm going home oh heavens just in front of me woe woe just in front of me a new face here down there history, and now I am going in!
