Home in Heaven
Whitecross Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A little boy, a lost voice
Walking in the deep dark wasteland
Look up high, in the sky
A new world of love and happiness

I heard a shout, that said out loud
Climb aboard the train to Jordan
Whoa
We got a home in heaven
Whoa
Someday I'm going

The love I found, it showered down
Could finally see where I was going
Words so true, the old made new
It's a new life I'm living

Angel voices shout for joy
Climb aboard the train

Whoa
We got a home in heaven
Whoa
Someday I'm going

Whoa
With this love I'm seeing
Whoa
It's a brand new...yeah!
It's a brand new chance for me, oh yeah!

Mmm he's got a brand new home for you
Angel voices are shouting 'Climb on board this train!'

We got a home in heaven
Whoa
Someday I'm going
Whoa
We got a home in heaven
Whoa
One day I'm going!
