Heaven On My Mind

Luther Barnes


Lead: 
I started out with Jesus at a very early age 
yes I've known him nearly all of my life 
well I'll admit there have been times 
where I've faltered along the way 
but I'll keep trying cause somehow I've gotta make it in 
you see I've got a charge on my life 
and I've got a job to do 
and I can't stop until it's through 

Chorus: 
I'm determined 
I've got made up mind 
I can't stand around wasting my time 
I'm gonna keep on working for Jesus 
every day of my life 
cause I've got heaven on my mind 

Verse 2: 
I don't have time to waste 
criticizing someone else 
there are some things I'd rather leave behind 
and I don't have time to be bothered 
with she said, that she said, that they said 
cause it's all I can do to keep my own self in line oh lord 
i must work while this day 
cause I know the night is surely coming 
I'm going all all the way 

Chorus 

Vamp: 
I can't understand how some people can move so slow 
but they don't know just what time it is 
he's coming back and I know it that won't be long 
I've gotta be ready, i've gotta be ready 
for my starry crown 
I want to hear him say i want to hear him say well done 

Chorus 
You can talk about me 
say what you wanna say 
you can stand around wasting your time 
but while you're talking I'm gonna keep on walking 
cause I got heaven on my mind 

Chorus 

I've got heaven (with echo 2 times) 

I've got heaven on my mind (end)
