Myron Butler & Levi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A place for me
A place, I can't hardly wait till the day to meet
Meet Him in that place
I'm gonna pray each and everyday without cease
Till I reach that place
I must take the straight and narrow way If I wanna see Jesus in that holy place
(I can't hardly wait)
To see Him in that place
(They'll be singing and shouting all day)
In that holy place
(I can't hardly wait)
To meet Him in that place
(They'll be singing and shouting all day)
Heaven's that holy place
Everyday where He's gone away
There's peace, everlasting
No more chains will be binding me
I'll be free You'll see when I reach that place
All the saints will gather and proclaim
That He's king, His majesty
We will sing and shout the victory
We'll be free in that holy place
I can't hardly wait till the day
To see His face, I can't hardly wait
To see Him in that place To meet Him in that place
To greet Him in that place
Heaven's that holy place
That place, that place, that place
All day, all day, all day
To meet Him in that place
