I'M Ready To Go To Heaven

VI.	  I’ve been lookin’ to go home.  I’ve been lookin’ for the Lord.  He’ll be back one 
of these days, like He said in His word.

CH.	I’m ready to go to heaven, I’m ready to go to heaven.  I’m ready to go to 
heaven, now.  I’m ready to go to heaven, I’m ready to go to heaven.  I’m ready to go to 
heaven today.

VII.	 I’ll be with God, I’ll be with Jesus, who I can’t wait to see: I can't wait to meet the 
king who is king 
of kings.

Fishers of Men

VII.	I’ve never walked on water.  I’ve never calmed a storm.  I’ve never fed a 
multitude with fish and bread.  Brother, I think it’s time to change your attitude.  Follow Jesus 
and He’ll make you fishers of men.

CH.	Cast your nets on the other side of the water and you’ll be fishers of men.  All it 
takes is to trust in Him and have some faith and that’s how to become fishers of men.

VII.	I’ve never seen a net that wasn’t full.  One by one they cami in like we’ve never 
seen.  Jesus made a miracle on that day.  Cast your nets in the water and become fishers of 
men.

Jesus Shed His Blood For Me

VI.	There’s a savior who I know, who shed His blood for me.  For God so Loved the 
world, He gave His only son, and I believe in Him for He died on Calvary.  Jesus shed His 
blood for me.

CH.	Jesus shed His blood for me oh, cant you see.  On a cross He paid for my cost, He 
took away my sin.  Now I’m born again, Jesus shed His blood for me.

VII.	Could you imagine how He must have felt?  Those nails in His hands and one to 
His feet.  But He loved me so that He would set me free.  Jesus shed His blood for me.

His Nail Scarred Hands

CH.    His nail scarred hands shows me the way.  His nail scarred hands holds my hand.  
When I'm lost when I'm afraid.  His nail scarred hands shows me the way.

VI.     I heard Thomas didn't believe until he saw them for himself.  Nobody else doubted 
Jesus, 'cause His nail scarred hands was on the cross.

If It Hadn'T Been For Jesus

VI.	On a cross the pain was so great.  I didn’t feel the nails, but I believe it’s true.  If 
it hadn’t been for Jesus, oh where would I be?  My soul would be lost if He hadn’t died  for 
me.

CH.	If it hadn’t been for Jesus, oh, where would I be?  On Calvary, is where He died 
just for me.  I don’t know why but He took my place, If it hadn’t been for Jesus and God’s 
amazing grace.

VII.	Amazing grace, how sweet the sound!  That saved a wretch like me!  I once was 
lost but now I’m found.  If it hadn’t been for Jesus, who set me free.

Heaven's Not Too Far Away

VI.	There’s a place where I think about that’s far from this world.  You can’t get there 
by a car or a plane.  You can be the richest man, but you can’t buy your way in.  Heaven’s 
not too far if you only believe.

CH.	  Oh, let’s go to heaven together.  Let’s go see you family and friends.  Jesus will 
be there and I can’t wait to go.  Heaven’s not too far if you only believe.

VII.	There are sinners who can say they can wait, but do the know Jesus will be back 
someday?  Let’s make our way to the cross and pray it’s not too late.  Heaven’s not too far if 
you only believe.

I'M Gonna Go To Heaven Someday

VI.	There’s a place I call Heaven, and I’m going there some day, Streets of gold I’ll 
walk on, and God’s amazing grace.  We’ll be happy all the time, no more sadness, no more 
cryin’.  I’m gonna go to Heaven some day.

CH.	Angels will be singing.  Grandpa will be there.  We’ll walk them golden stairs, and 
meet the King of Kings.  He’s gonna come again, but what we’ll never know, I’m gonna go to 
Heaven some day.

VII.	You better be prepared, for that judgment day.  Please don’t walk away, when 
you need a friend.  Jesus is a friend.  He’ll help you to the end.  I’m gonna go to Heaven 
some day.

When God Calls Me Home

VI.	God made the world a long time ago.  In the beginning of creation He made the 
stars and the moon above.  But when God calls me home, I will be gone.

CH.	When God calls me home, I can’t wait to go.  Heaven ain’t too far but yet I’m still 
on earth.  I’m gonna be with Jesus, I wanna see Him first.  When God calls me home, I’ll 
never thirst again.

VII.	The rapture will come soon, I believe.  Be ready to go, don’t be left behind.  It’s 
getting close everyday we live.  When God calls me home, I’ll leave this world.

Let everyone worship, ‘cause God is amazing to me.

CH.	We oughta praise Him more.  We oughta do what’s right.  Let His name be heard.  
Let the light shine.  Get down on your knees and pray to the Lord, ‘Cause God is amazing to 
me.

VII.	We may not see eye to eye on some things in this world, but one thing I want you 
to know.  God is amazing, God is great, God is amazing to me.

That's What the Bible Says

VI.     Jesus walked on water and He healed the blind. He fed the multitude with fish and 
bread.  He is king of kings no matter what they say, 'cause that's what the Bible says

CH.     That is what the Bible says.  Every word is true, every scripture's real.  It's plain 
between the lines all black and white but what Jesus says is written in red.

VII.     Jesus healed the lame and He healed the sick.  Turned water into wine and raised the 
dead.  He is lord of lords, king of kings, no matter what they say, that's what the Bible says.
