Looking for Heaven
Looking in places that you would regret
Think you found something'
Well here, stick around 'cause you ain't seen nothin' yet

Come on to me with your rationale
And I'll do my best to show you somehow

It might take a lifetime, and it might take a minute
If God made Heaven, then He wants you in it

Ever been lonely?
What am I saying, we've all been lonely
I'm here to tell you
My Lord Jesus, He's the One and only

Waiting for your sun to shine
I'll wait 'til the day I die
Don't you go and wait that long
I want to see you There with me

Jimmy rode a bike with a steering wheel
Said he didn't like the way the handle bars feel
Folks said, "Jimmy, son what's the deal?"
And this is what Jimmy said...

"Ain't no more with the wonder why
I can't live like those other guys
So I dwell on the outside
And do what's right for me"

Get on wit' your bad self
Get on wit' your bad self
Get on wit' your bad self, Jimmy

One day Jimmy was hangin' 'round
A man said, "Boy, won't you come down
To a big tent meetin' outside town...
Gonna be a big show!"

Jimmy thought about it for a short while
And his words came back with a big smile
"Well, if it ain't ordinary, then it's my style
So I guess I'll have to go"

From the time that he walked in that place
There was a burnin' in his soul
When he heard about Heaven and God's grace
That Jimmy was a holy rollin'

Some folks never quite figured out
Just what Jimmy was all about
Well he sure loved Jesus, but they had doubts about
About the bike with a steering wheel

Breakdown out on the town
What are you gonna do?
No fun out on the town
Where have you come to?

You know, you built a lovely mausoleum
For your soul

Outside everything's bright
Making it on your own
Inside rotten and dried
Nothin' but dead man's bones

Ain't it a shame, all of the world's a game
You can see everything circling down the drain
Ain't it a shame, all you've been fashionin'
Suddenly crashin' in
Surely you know, you built a lovely mausoleum

Sunrise open your eyes
When are you gonna see?
New day coming your way
What is it gonna be?

Your choice, your voice
You are in control
Jesus, Jesus
He will make you whole

My Lord will soon be coming down
Like the rain on new mown grass
Showers falling on the thirsty land

The righteous man will flourish in those days
And for as long as the moon runs 'round
Peace will abound

I sing praises, I sing praises
Praises to my Savior
Praises to my Lord

All those who dwell in wildnerness
Will bow down licking dust
And kings will follow, bringing gifts to my Lord

With one cry, He'll deliver those in need
And all the meek
And those who have oppressors in the world

And blessed be the Power
Blessed be the Glory
And blessed be the Name of Jesus

Somewhere in time there is an ocean deep and pure
Somewhere in space there is an endless ocean shore
Somewhere between they meet and waiting there for me
Is where my love will be

Somewhere in time there's a boy who's not afraid to cry
Somewhere in space, a girl awaits to dry his eyes
Somehow they're drawn together by love's great gravity
Somewhere between time and space
Is where my love will be

Someday we're gonna live forever
Someday we're gonna be together
Someday with our Lord in Heaven, I pray

Somewhere in time there's a body that's just been touched
Somewhere in space a pair of hands that know too much
Somewhere they got confused and traded love for ecstasy
Somewhere between time and space
Is where my love will be

I've been through time,
Things flying by at the speed of light
I've been through space,
Where things like this occur in the night
I searched eternity for a love that seemed so true
Now somewhere between time and space,
I'm waiting for you

Someday (there will be Heaven)
In between time and space (there will be Heaven)
Someday (there will be Heaven)
In between time and space (there will be Heaven)

Do you remember the night when you said you
Was givin' it all to Jesus?
How you'd been in the bondage of sin
And then you was ready to cut loose

When you said you wanted to be free
They took you seriously

There's a star by your name in the book of life
Angels are watching you overtime
They can't understand why a child of the King
Would be happier living with swine
There's a star in the book of life

When are you gonna wake up and figure out
What you've been doin'?
I'm gonna show you what's goin' on up there
To save your life from ruin

Rise up out of the mire
Know you are God's desire
Come home, baby, please come home

Welcome to this uncharted shore
Put your heart to rest, you're not stranded anymore
'Cause we're sailing boats on a borrowed sea
'Til these wounding waves get the best of me

Chorus
I'm still breathing
I wanna live like this air was given to me
I'm still seeing
I wanna live like these eyes were given to me
To see the Glory

Let the bridges burn at a reckless pace
There's no need to cross over their dismay
'Cause we're flying kites on a borrowed wind
We can't lose a moment
And ever expect to reel it in

It's when we're deepest in need
That's where we're supposed to be
We're just hanging on
Weak and strong
We get strong

Some people just want to survive
And I don't know about you
But I am alive
Lately it seems that I need a hand
In a fallen world, I just want to stand
What would Jesus do walkin' in my shoes
Workin' at my job and goin' to my school?
And I hear people say, "Jesus is the way"
I believe and that is way I'm asking you
What would Jesus do?
And as we all know
Life can be tough
And all that we need is love - sweet love
So where do we go? Well here's what I see
To change my world
I gotta change me

Sometimes choices don't seem black and white
And they can leave you black and blue
What would Jesus do - He'd give His life for you
If you follow Him - you'll give your life to them
Shine on - Shine on - Follow with Jesus
Shine on - Shine on - Follow with Jesus
