There's A Whole Lotta Heaven

There's A Whole Lotta Heaven

(Album: Sing The Delta - 2012)

There's a lot of people talking 'bout getting in the gloryland way
Walking straight and narrow, trying to get to heaven someday
But I've been saved by the love of the people living right here
And there's a whole lotta heaven shining in this river of tears

We don't have a prophet to tell us what our future holds
We've only got each other and the love we carry in our souls
Though this world's full of trouble and the path we walk is never clear
There's still this whole lotta heaven shining in a river of tears

There's a whole lotta heaven shining in this river of tears
You pull back the curtain little diamonds will appear
You can take your streets of gold if you want 'em
And your mansion so dear
But I'll take the whole lotta heaven shining in this river of tears

This life that I'm living is like a ship that don't want to be steered
Sometimes I wake up in the morning thinking
I could buckle beneath the weight of my own fears
It's some pain, some strain and some struggle
But I persevere
I got a whole lotta heaven shining in my river of tears

There's a whole lotta heaven shining in this river of tears
You pull back the curtain little diamonds will appear
You can take your streets of gold if you want 'em
And your mansion so dear
But I'll take the whole lotta heaven shining
I want a whole lotta heaven shining
I love a whole lotta heaven shining
In this river of tears
