Geoff Moore Album: Speak to Me Track: When I Get Where I'm Going
When I Get Where I'm Going Lyrics
When I get where I'm going On the far side of the sky The first thing that I'm gonna do Is spread my wings and fly
I'm gonna land beside a lion And run my fingers through his mane Or I might find out what it's like To ride a drop of rain
Chorus: Yeah, when I get where I'm going There'll be only happy tears I will shed the sins and struggles I have carried all these years And I'll leave my heart wide open I will love and have no fear Yeah, when I get where I'm going Don't cry for me down here
I'm gonna walk with my granddaddy And he'll match me step for step And I'll tell him how I've missed him Every minute since he left
So much pain and so much darkness This world we stumble through All these questions I can't answer So much work to do
But when I get where I'm going And I see my maker's face I'll stand forever in the light Of His amazing grace
By Rivers Rutherford and George G. Teren III / featuring guest vocalist Christy Nockels
Song Description: "I had the privilege to work with songwriter Rivers Rutherford on one of my albums and really admire his writing. When I was growing up, I would hear people in my church sometimes refer to someone as being "too heavenly minded for any earthly good." I think in today's culture it may be just the opposite. Too earthly minded for any heavenly good. I believe that living in the light of eternity will impact the way we live today. This song reminds me to do that. And to have one my favorite singers, Watermark's Christy Nockels join me on the song, just made it perfect." - Geoff Moore
