Just Like Jesus Did
If you ever get to Heaven
Would you ever wanna leave
It takes a lifetime to get there
And the greatest we'll achieve
After you see those streets of gold
Could you really just walk away
And turn your back on Paradise
Like it's any other day
Could you leave behind your loved ones
Who rejoiced when you arrived
And tell them you must leave the place
That's more beautiful than described
Could you touch the walls of jasper
Or sail the crystal sea
And then walk thru those gates of pearl
And leave eternity
And after you've been to Paradise
A place where life don't end
Could you leave this place you call your home
To die for a stranger's sin
Could you ever tell the Father
To keep the things He's hid
And one day soon you'll come back home
Just like Jesus did
