Cross That Bridge

There is a bridge in my eyesight
that can take me from here to there
And, where that bridge will take me
I don't think I really care

It has to be a wonderful place 
with flowers, fields and tree's
It has to be the biggest thing
that every person see's

In this place there will be no old
just everything that's new
There will never be a reason to lie
'cause the spoken word is true

There is happiness and kindness
in this place I know we'll love
The light will radiate this Heavenly place
as it sits up high above

So I ask you to come on over
but you will never jump that ridge
You must fill your heart with the love of Christ
and, only then you'll cross that bridge
