Lyrics:
The Great Beyond

PLEASE COVER ME WITH FLOWERS, CLOSE THE DOOR AND LET ME SLEEP
IT'S TIME TO LEAVE THIS WORLD BEHIND THAT WAS NEVER MINE TO KEEP
HELP ME ON MY JOURNEY
DON'T MISS ME WHEN I'M GONE
LET ME GO PEACEFULLY NOW
TO THE GREAT BEYOND

DON'T CRY FOR ME TOO LONG, IT WAS TIME I LEFT YOU ALL
JUST COULDN'T STAY ANOTHER DAY WHEN I FINALLY HEARD HIM CALL
LORD KNOWS WHERE I'M GOING
AND I'VE GOTTA GET MOVING ON
I DON'T WANT TO KEEP HIM WAITING
ON MY WAY TO THE GREAT BEYOND

WHERE CITIES ARE MADE OF PRECIOUS STONES
THAT REFLECT THE HOLY LIGHT
WHERE ANGELS FLY ON GOLDEN WINGS
AND GOD'S NOT FAR FROM SIGHT
I FOUND MY STRENGTH IN JESUS
THE ONLY ONE I LEAN UPON
I'LL SOON BE WALKING WITH HIM IN HEAVEN
AND LIVING IN THE GREAT BEYOND

WELL I FOUND THE LOVE I'VE WANTED AND IT'S ALL THE LOVE I NEED
MORE THAN I HAVE DREAMED OF NOW MY HEART AND SOUL ARE FREE
I'M RIDING WITH THE ANGELS TONIGHT
SINGING HEAVEN'S SONG
I THINK I SEE THOSE PEARLY GATES
LEADING TO THE GREAT BEYOND

WHERE CITIES ARE MADE OF PRECIOUS STONES
THAT REFLECT THE HOLY LIGHT
WHERE ANGELS FLY ON GOLDEN WINGS
AND GOD'S NOT FAR FROM SIGHT
I FOUND MY STRENGTH IN JESUS
THE ONLY ONE I LEAN UPON
HE'S REACHING OUT TO TAKE MY HAND
AND LEAD ME HOME TO THE GREAT BEYOND

NOW I'M WALKING WITH HIM IN HEAVEN
AT HOME IN THE GREAT BEYOND
