Michael Degenhardt Poet Lyric

Got To Believe

When the journey ends… it’s a new beginning
As you see the smiles… from the people you love
For you know you’ve reached… the place you’ve been seeking
With a warm tone
A welcome
A hand given
You’ve reached… heaven above

As today
Becomes… just yesterday
And tomorrow
Will never cease
Your love’s alive
In the beings of angels
You’ve just got to 
You’ve just got to
You’ve just got to…believe

When the day exists… on forever and ever
And the glory… of Heaven is yours
Look upon the earth… and the people you’ll welcome
For you’re standing… on the right of the Lord

As today
Becomes… just yesterday
And tomorrow
Will never cease
Your love’s alive
In the beings of angels
You’ve just got to 
You’ve just got to
You’ve just got to…believe
