there - Leonardo Gonçalves

Well, I’ve heard a million times

In many songs and rhymes

I’ve witnessed arguments about how it will be

Will it be every living eye

To see him coming in the sky

And what about the midnight cry, I hear them say

Are the streets like I was told

Are they really made of gold

And will Jerusalem be built where it is now

How can there be a crystal sea

If the sea has ceased to be

All these questions annoy me, I just don’t care

'Cause I want to be there

I just want to be there

And sit at my Jesus' feet

I wanna be there

I just don’t care about the crown

Or the color of the gown

As long as Jesus is in town I wanna be there

I know there are things in this life that we can’t understand

There are moments we tend to forget where we belong

Sure, there’s time, yes, there’s wealth in that beautiful place

But all I want is to see him face to face

I just want to be there

I just want to be there

And sit at my Jesus' feet

I wanna be there

I just don’t care about the crown

Or the color of the gown

As long as Jesus is in town I wanna be there
