Knowing What I Know About Heaven

I bet the trumpets play and the angels sing

Every sweet refrain of amazing grace

And that Heaven's hands opened up the gate

And the children danced when they saw your face

As happy as they were to see you coming

I was just as sad to have to watch you go, oh but

Knowing what I know about heaven

Believing that you're all the way home

Knowing that you're somewhere better

Is all I need to let you go

I could hope that I could pray you're back

But why on earth would I do that

When you're somewhere life and love never ends

Oh, knowing what I know about heaven

Where every single voice makes a joyful noise

How sweet the sound when the saints rejoice

To every broken heart and wounded soul

New life begins on streets of gold

But every tear that's raining here from my eyes

I know the sun is shining where you are

Oh, knowing what I know about heaven

Believing that you're all the way home

knowing that you're somewhere better

Is all I need to let you go

I could hope that I could pray you're back

But why on earth would I do that

When youre somewhere life and love never ends

Oh, knowing what I know about heaven
