Brad Paisley: When I get where I'm going

Thanks to Nick McC for reminding me about this great song!

Listen and read the lyrics below.  You know I'm an easy cryer!  Here come the tears! But I love the thought that this is what it will be like.  What fun...we had  a discussion in car pool about "will there be puppies in heaven?" for me YES! What will your heaven be like?  Oh to sit beside a lion and run your fingers through it's mane...

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 grandaddy,
and he'll match me step for step,
and I'll tell him how I missed him,
every minute since he left.
Then I'll hug his neck.

(Chorus)

So much pain and so much darkness,
in 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.
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
Oh, when I get where I'm going,
there'll be only happy tears.
Hallelujah!
I will love and have no fear.
When I get where I'm going.
Yeah when I get where I'm going.

I will love and have no fear.  This divorce and betrayal rears it's ugly head at some of the most unexpected times and I am so fearful to love...just when you think it's over and done something will remind you of the hurt and you don't ever want to feel that again.  I watched a movie last night and my favorite line was "God don't like ugly"  meaning how the lady was acting...I  don't know what all of this has to do with any of it...this morning is pretty random!!
