Lyrics
I will walk slow and steady down this street
I will walk slow and steady down this street
I will walk slow and steady I know it will be sweet
When I reach where this street and heaven meet
I will ask for his mercy, wash my sins
I will ask for his mercy, wash my sins
I will ask for his mercy, I know it will be sweet
When I reach where this street and heaven meet
Halleluiah, celebrate
Halleluiah, My Lord Awaits
I have reached my destination
Open up those Pearly Gates
I will reach out my hand, he’ll take me home
I will reach out my hand, he’ll take me home
I will reach out my hand, I know it will be sweet
When I reach where this street and heaven meet
I will dance with the angels, twist and shout
I will dance with the angels, twist and shout
I will dance with the angels, I know it will be sweet
When I reach where this street and heaven meet
Halleluiah, celebrate
Halleluiah, My Lord Awaits
I have reached my destination
Open up those Pearly Gates
I have reached my destination and it is sweet
Where this street and heaven meet.
