Family gathered 'round

surrounded by fear

the death of a loved one

is getting awfully near

hearts are slowly shattered

tears are being shed

to the gates of Heaven

you'll be led

 

Chorus

 

When you get to Heaven

give God a hug for me

tell him I love him

I'll always believe

open up the gates

sing the holy songs

the kingdom of Heaven

is where you belong

 

Verse 2

 

Child go there shouting

there's no place like home

know when you get there

you'll never be alone

be the guardian angel

I know you will be

when my time comes

come fly away with me
